Biography

2022 Ginetta Junior Rookie champion Will Macintyre will contest the final rounds of this year’s GB4 Championship with his current team Elite Motorsport at Donington Park on 15/16 October. 

Fifteen-year-old Macintyre is contesting his first full season out of karts with Elite and wrapped up the Ginetta Junior Rookie title with five races remaining. He has an outside chance of claiming the outright title at Brands Hatch this weekend (8-9 Oct) having scored 13 overall podiums including five victories.

The three races at Donington later this month will mark Will’s maiden single-seater races, at the Leicestershire venue in which he raced at for the first time just six months ago in the opening rounds of Ginetta Junior, having competed in the four-race 2021 Ginetta Junior Winter Series last November with Elite. 

Macintyre will join Elite’s GB4 regular Jack Sherwood at Donington. Jack himself moved up from a maiden Ginetta Junior season last year into single-seaters and currently lies fifth in the Driver’s standings. Sherwood remains in mathematical contention for the inaugural GB4 title having claimed nine podiums, including two wins, in the last 13 races.
