The Wera Tools F4 British Championship certified by FIA brings the curtain down on a blockbuster season at Brands Hatch this weekend, where all eyes will be on Fionn McLaughlin, Jimmy Piszcyk and Martin Molnár in the battle to be crowned champion.
Closing out a campaign that has seen no less than 14 different race winners and a further four different drivers stand on the podium, the destiny of this year’s title in the UK’s premier single-seater series is set to conclude with three races around the legendary 2.43-mile Grand Prix circuit.
Hitech TGR’s McLaughlin has one hand on the coveted crown, having built up a 61.5-point lead over both Piszcyk (Rodin Motorsport) and Molnár (Virtuosi Racing) in recent rounds, with a maximum of 80 still up for grabs.
Five wins and a further seven podium finishes have provided the backbone to the Irishman’s charge, but despite holding a commanding advantage out front, McLaughlin can’t afford to be complacent for a second.
His title rivals Piszcyk and Molnár have underlined their credentials over the course of this season; Piszcyk with four wins to his name plus an additional four podiums, and Molnár with 10 podiums including two victories.
The expectation is that both drivers will be on maximum attack in their bid to pull off what would be a remarkable comeback to snatch top spot. It therefore promises to be a captivating battle for supremacy.
Behind the top three, an almighty tussle to finish inside the top five is brewing with race winners Tommy Harfield (Chris Dittmann Racing), Argenti Motorsport team-mates August Raber and Ethan Jeff-Hall, and Adam Al Azhari (Rodin Motorsport) all blanketed by a handful of points.
Also featuring inside the top ten and not to be discounted is Fortec Motorsport’s Henry Joslyn – chasing a maiden win – and the rapid duo of Thomas Bearman (Hitech TGR) and Rowan Campbell-Pilling (JHR Developments), two other drivers to have triumphed in 2025.
Elsewhere, the Teams’ Cup is also set for a dramatic showdown as Hitech TGR and Rodin Motorsport go head-to-head for the title with just 29.5 points separating the two. Both will field a four-driver line-up once more this weekend; Rookie duo Xavier Avramides and Joseph Smith join team-mates McLaughlin and Bearman at Hitech, while Piszcyk and Al Azhari are again bolstered by Dries van Langendonck and Guy Albag at Rodin.
And though McLaughlin has already wrapped up the Rookie Cup, the battle remains for a spot in the top three. Bearman is looking comfortable currently with a 52.5-point cushion over third, but it’s certainly not a done deal as Xcel Motorsport duo Theo Palmer and Cole Hewetson can still challenge him, while a P3 finish is within the sights of both Avramides and Henry Mercier (Argenti Motorsport).
Race winner Chase Fernandez (Xcel Motorsport) will be eyeing a strong finish to his 2025 campaign, as will team-mate Yuhao Fu. Arjen Kräling (Argenti Motorsport), Oleksandr Savinkov (Virtuosi Racing), Piotr Orzechowski (Chris Dittmann Racing) and Haarni Sadiq (JHR Developments) complete the 23-strong grid.
