Polish racer Piotr Orzechowski will join Chris Dittmann Racing for his debut in Wera Tools F4 British F4 this weekend at Silverstone.
The youngster, from Kostrzyn nad Odrą on the border of Poland and Germany, began karting at age 13 and has rapidly progressed, clinching third place in the 2024 ROK Cup in his home country.
Those performances earned him a spot in the Polish Motor Association (Polski Związek Motorowy) national squad and prompted him to travel to the United Kingdom for intensive British F4 testing. Working diligently to build his technical knowledge and confidence, he then signed with Chris Dittmann Racing to further his development ahead of his planned series debut.
Inspired by Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris, Piotr has also returned to ROK Cup karting to stay sharp, racing across Europe and undertaking additional test sessions in the UK. He will make his debut this weekend on the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit and will contest three rounds in total during the 2025 season.
Piotr Orzechowski: “I am really happy to step into the single seaters and to join British F4 with Chris Dittmann Racing as they are a great team with a great history. The car is nice to drive, so I have been getting the laps in during testing and building my confidence ahead of racing at Silverstone. The team has been really helpful and giving me good tips, so I am sure if I keep listening to them, I will be fine.”
Chris Dittmann, Team Principal: “We are thrilled to welcome Piotr to Chris Dittmann Racing. From our first test sessions it was clear he brings exceptional talent and determination. Our experienced engineers and strategists will work closely with him to refine his skills and extract the maximum performance from the car. We believe Piotr has all the attributes to challenge at the front this season, and we look forward to a campaign of growth and podium success.”
