Jack Beeton (born 17 November 2007) is an Australian racing driver from Gold Coast.[1] He currently competes in the 2024 Italian F4 Championship with US Racing.[2] He is the 2023 Formula 4 South East Asia Championship champion.[3]

Career

edit

Karting

edit

Beeton competed in the Australian Kart Championship from the 2020 season onwards, and his best result in the championship was 6th in the KA4 Junior category in 2022.[4]

Formula 4

edit

2022

edit

In late 2022, Beeton had the chance to impress the Ferrari Driver Academy, and win a place in the scouting world finals. He won the Asia Pacific and Oceania Selection Program alongside fellow Aussie Gianmarco Pradel, to make it to the world finals.[5] He lined up alongside Pradel and 4 other finalists in the finals, and was the youngest driver selected.[6]

2023

edit

After showing his quality in the scouting world finals, he was announced to be driving in F4 UAE for Pinnacle VAR.[7] Beeton had a tough rookie year, and he only scored one points finish as he ended the campaign in 23rd.[8] Beeton then went to Europe and was signed by VAR for the full Italian F4 season.[9] Beeton went on to finish 23rd in the championship, scoring just two points in his debut season with a best result of 9th.[10] Beeton then ended the season back in Asia as he joined AGI Sport for the 2023 Formula 4 South East Asia Championship.[11] Beeton had an outstanding season, winning the title by a considerable margin. He scored 130 points and managed a total of 5 podiums from 9 races.[12]

2024

edit

Beeton opted to continue his successful journey with AGI as the team entered the 2024 Formula 4 UAE Championship.[13] The combination had a largely successful season in the championship, scoring two podiums as Beeton finished 12th in the championship against vastly more experienced teams.[14] Beeton then contested the remaining two rounds of the Formula Winter Series, with his new team US Racing, who would also partner him for the Italian F4 and Euro 4 seasons.[15] Beeton had a very successful two round stint in FWS, scoring 52 points and standing on the podium three times in five races.[16]
