Karting graduate Sebastian Murray will compete in the final two rounds of this season’s GB4 Championship with Graham Brunton Racing. 

The Scottish-born UAE-based driver graduated out of karting towards the end of last year, making his Formula 4 debut at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix-supporting UAE F4 Trophy event at the Yas Marina Circuit, where he banked two top-10 finishes in front of the F1 paddock.

The 16-year-old followed that up by completing the full 15-race UAE F4 campaign earlier this year, including events at the Dubai Autodrome, Kuwait Motor Town, and Yas Marina circuits. Since then, he’s been elevating his single-seater experience with a European F4 testing programme.

Prior to his single-seater debut, Murray had enjoyed a strong karting career, and competed in both the IAME UAE and Rotax Max Challenge UAE Rotax Senior categories last year, while also racing in the IAME Euro Series. 

Murray joins fellow Scottish youngster Harry Burgoyne in the expanded two-car line-up for the Knockhill-based squad. His GB4 debut at Brands Hatch will mark his first single-seater race experience in the UK, and he’s also scheduled to compete at the Donington Park season finale in October.
