Scott Lindblom
Scott stepped into cars for the first time in 2025, quickly adapting to the Ginetta Junior machinery and demonstrating strong pace throughout the season, finishing fourth overall.
The 15-year-old has been testing his single-seater wings in the F4 Saudi Arabian Championship this autumn, with five podiums and a victory in the eight races so far. His progression into British F4 is the next major milestone in his career as he continues his climb up the junior formula ladder.
Before moving into cars, Scott built an outstanding record in karting. Born in Falun, Sweden, he began at age five and rapidly progressed through Swedish national categories and into international competition. In 2023 he secured a bronze medal in the FIA Karting World Championship – OK Junior, proving his ability on the global stage.
In 2024 he stepped up into the OK Senior class at just 13 years old and took the title in the prestigious WSK Euro Series, dominating the season with victories in all his heats, Prefinals and Finals. That same year he was selected by Red Bull’s driver programme following the Red Bull Driver Search test and quickly became one of their standout junior talents – a sign of his ambition and talent.
