Lily-May Watkins will stay with KMR Sport as she returns to the GB4 Championship for a second season in 2026.

The 18-year-old stepped up to car racing for the first time with the team in 2025, edging closer to the pace as the season progressed. 

Despite a lack of car racing experience compared to her rivals, Lily was able to score consistent points as she acclimatised to single-seaters, and netted a top-10 finish at Oulton Park despite hugely challenging conditions. 

Prior to her GB4 graduation, Lily had built up a thorough grounding in karting and Esports. Having begun competitive racing in 2019, her karting accolades included third place in the Rye House Lando Cup in 2020, and the semi-finals of the 2023 British Indoor Karting Championship.

Now with a year’s car racing experience to her name, Lily returns to the series and has already returned to action by commencing a pre-season testing campaign with Kevin Mills’ multiple GB4 Championship-winning squad.
