Biography

Having spent the past year honing his skills in competitive karting in Europe, 16-year-old Henry now makes the challenging but invaluable step into single-seater racing.

After starting out in karts in 2022, the American has made great progress in a short space of time. Based in Spain, he was competitive at a national level with just a year of racing under his belt.

Following testing with the team, Argenti Motorsport signed Henry for their 2025 British F4 campaign – his first in single seaters – as the team demonstrates their ongoing commitment to developing young, talented drivers.
