I spoke briefly with British F4 star Edward Pearson a couple months back for this latest edition of 10 Questions to a Racing Driver!

Edward ended the season 12th this year, his first year in single seaters, racing for Virtuosi Racing, alongside one of my former guest on this segment, Michael Woohyun Shin.

3. Understeer or oversteer? Oversteer.

4. Fast circuits or technical circuits? Technical circuits.

6. What's your favourite circuit you've raced? Donington.

📸 Donington has played host to a number of series', including F1 in the past.

7. Favourite you've not raced? Spa.

📸 Spa is a highly popular answer for drivers I've asked this question and it's easy to see why!

8. Your favourite F1 livery ever? 2022 Mercedes.

📸 The Brackley team have reverted back to their traditional 'Silver Arrow' style this year with some changes.

9. Your favourite helmet design ever. Lewis' 2021 British GP.

Thanks Edward for the chat and congratulations on a good rookie year in single seaters! Hopefully we can chat again sometime! And obviously; the best of luck for 2023!
