Biography

Formula One Esports champion Lucas Blakeley made his slicks and wings racing debut in the GB4 Championship at Snetterton with KMR Sport. 

The 21-year-old Scotsman won the 2022 F1 Esports Series for McLaren, having been a front-runner for several campaigns before that. He was also the winner of the eROC title at the Race of Champions earlier this year in Sweden. 

As well as being one of the world’s leading Esports competitors, Blakeley has also made a high-profile switch to real-world competition, notably beating F1 stars Valtteri Bottas, Mika Hakkinen and Sebastian Vettel in head-to-head contests in the past two Race of Champions events in Sweden. 

In addition, he has also sampled circuit racing in Formula Ford, and was the runner-up in the Scottish Championship last year. He has since competed with KMR Sport at the Silverstone round of the United Formula Ford series, and then the Oulton Park event for the National Formula Ford Championship back in April.
