The 23-year-old German has acted as the team's reserve driver for the last two seasons and was always expected to fill in for Lotterer in Indonesia, as the three-time Le Mans 24 Hours winner will spend the same weekend with Porsche's LMDh team in preparation for the 2023 edition of the race.
Beckmann most recently competed in two part-time seasons of Formula 2 in 2021 and 2022, achieving two podiums in that time, and earlier this year drove for the factory Porsche Formula E team in the rookie test following the Berlin E-Prix double-header.
