Career edit

Karting edit

Alders started karting in 2009 in The Netherlands when he was 10 where he races a string of successful campaigns, which includes winning the Dutch Championship Academy in 2012.

ADAC Formula 4 Championship edit

In 2018, Alders made his single-seater debut in the ADAC F4 championship with Van Amersfoort Racing.[1] Alders' highest finish was at the second race at Hockenheimring where he finished 5th, at the end of the season he finished 11th with 44 points.

Asian Formula Renault Series edit

Alders tested for and moved to BlackArts Racing for the 2019 Asian Formula Renault Series.[2] Alders finished on the podium ten times, eight of which were race victories. Alders won the championship with 314 points, 49 points ahead of runner up Bruno Carneiro.

F3 Asian Championship edit

After his performance in the Asian formula Renault series, BlackArts Racing kept Alders to race in the F3 Asian Championship. On the 13 December 2019, the season kicked off at Sepang International Circuit where Alders won two of the three rounds. Alders would go on to win three more races and get a total of 11 podiums. In the final rounds three drivers could still win the title Jack Doohan, Nikita Mazepin and Alders. On the first race of the final round in Thailand, Doohan was leading the race ahead of Alders until a late puncture caused Doohan to limp to the end and finished 8th where Alders inherited the win. Alders won the championship with 266 points.

Formula Renault edit

Alders tested with MP Motorsport in the pre-season test at Monza. Due to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the preseason test immediately preceded the first round of the championship. It was later confirmed that Alders would contest the season with MP Motorsport[3]
