Cooper Shipman dominated to capture his ninth consecutive victory in Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.) competition at Virginia International Raceway (VIR) on Sunday afternoon. The victory was enough to lock in his status as the 2025 F4 U.S. Champion and secure the scholarship to compete in the Formula Regional Americas Championship in 2026. The victory allowed Shipman (No. 14 Kiwi Motorsport Ligier JS F422) to break a record set by Cameron Das during the inaugural season of F4 U.S. competition, and set a new standard for consecutive wins in the FIA-certified championship.
