He was thus internally defeated by Robert Shwartzman , who started every race and was third overall.

With 166 to 167 points he was defeated by Shwartzman within the team, who had also not started for a race weekend.
In 2016 Beckmann stayed with Mücke Motorsport and competed in the European Formula 3 championship . He skipped the first two events because he had not yet reached the age limit. Two third places were his best results. In the championship he reached 15th place. Beckmann has also been supported by the beverage manufacturer Red Bull since this season . In 2017 Beckmann switched to Van Amersfoort Racing and competed in the European Formula 3 championship again. After three race weekends, he moved to Team Motopark.
In mid-2018 Beckmann switched from Jenzer Motorsport to Trident Racing in the GP3 series . Already on the first race weekend Beckmann was able to achieve his best result of the season to date with fourth place. In the following races he won in Spa, Monza and Sochi, making him the most successful driver in the second half of the season. With a total of three wins, four podium positions and two pole positions, Beckmann finished fifth in the overall standings at the end of the season.
