Emmilio Valentino Del Grosso will contest this year’s GB4 Championship with Elite Motorsport.
The 16-year-old Venezuelan who lives in Antwerp, Belgium, finished 14th in last year’s Ginetta Junior Rookie Championship – his first season out of karts – scoring a seventh overall best-place finish. He began karting in 2023, competing in the X30 Senior class before participating in the IAME Euroseries and IAME Series Benelux.
Emmilio Valentino Del Grosso: “GB4 is a major step in my career and one I’ve been working towards for a long time. The opportunity to stay within the Elite Motorsport family means a lot to me.”
“I know the level will be high, but that’s exactly what motivates me, and I’m ready to embrace the challenge ahead. My goal is to keep developing, push myself every weekend and work towards consistent, competitive results.”
Team Owner Eddie Ives: “We’re really pleased to see Emmilio step up into GB4 with Elite Motorsport and continue his journey with us for another season.”
“His time in Ginetta Juniors has given him a valuable grounding in car racing, and he’s learned a huge amount that puts him in a strong position to make the move into single-seaters.”
“GB4 is a significant step, but we believe he has the attitude and ability to adapt quickly and keep developing in a highly competitive environment. It’s always rewarding to promote drivers from within, and we’re excited to see what Emmilio can achieve this year.”
