A WINNING TEAM
The Series
Whilst Formula 1 is the global phenomenon that is the undisputed pinnacle of global motorsports, there are several feeder routes to reach that highly competitive level. Neirin Teifi will be testing for Formula 4 in early 2025, with a 6-year career plan to progress through the UK motorsports ranks via F.RECA, F3 and F2 then onwards to Formula 1
The Strategy
The category was created in 2013 by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) - the International sanctioning and administrative body for motorsport - after approval by the World Motor Sport Council as an entry-level category for young drivers, bridging the gap between karting and Formula 3, and enabling drivers as young as 15 years of age to race on some of the most challenging and renowned circuits in the world. As the championship is certified by the FIA, 12 Super Licence points will be awarded to the overall champion to aid their progression through the single seater ranks. 40 Super License points are required to be eligible to race in Formula 1.
Having previously launched the careers of legends including Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher, Damon Hill, Eddie Irvine, Jenson Button, David Coulthard and more recently McLaren F1 star Lando Norris, the F4 category remains the ‘go-to’ destination for drivers aspiring to achieve a career at the sport’s highest level.
The championship has an unrivalled promotional platform to aid drivers in building their audience; British F4 receives live free-to-air television coverage on ITV4, as well as capacity trackside crowds at each of the ten events on the UK’s premier circuits and impressive social media coverage to assist in building your brand.
