British youngster Lewis Wherrell will make his car racing debut in the GB4 Championship at Donington Park this weekend (4/5 October).

The new FIA Karting event, which brought together the OK-N and OK-N Junior World Cups, as well as the third and final competition of the Academy Trophy - Junior, lived up to all expectations. On the Cremona circuit, the last day ended in sunshine with some very exciting Finals. Italy's Manuel Scognamiglio made the difference in OK-N, and his compatriot Gioele Girardello made history by becoming the first winner of the OK-N Junior World Cup. While Lithuania's Nojus Stasionis won the Academy - Junior Final, the title was clinched by Finland's Oiva Vettenranta on the final lap

The GB3 Championship, partnered by the BRDC, has released a new-look calendar for the 2026 season, with events at the Red Bull Ring and the season finale at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya being the headline additions. Both F1 venues are set to host GB3 action for the first time, with the season schedule retaining the customary eight-round, 24-race schedule.

The GB4 Championship, partnered by the BRDC, has confirmed its 2026 event calendar, retaining the popular and cost-effective seven-round, 21-race schedule across the UK’s premier circuits. In addition, plans for a maiden Winter Series have also been confirmed, with an end of year visit to Snetterton on 24/25 October for drivers considering an entry for the 2027 season.

This FIA Karting World Cup has attracted a large number of participants this year in a sign of the growing strength of FIA Karting events. Applications exceeded expectations so much so that FIA Karting had to close OK-N applications just hours after they opened. A total of 90 OK-N and 83 OK-NJ drivers will compete in Cremona in these two competitions, which promise to be very open.
