My latest guest is one of the most exciting young talents currently in single seater racing. Young Brit Freddie Slater; the newly crowned F4 UAE Champion, has plenty of people excited having stepped into cars from karting toward the end of 2023, and has taken to winning races like a duck to water.
Since the turn of the year as he begins his first full season in single seaters, he's already secured his first title, taking two race wins and six podiums along the way against tough opponents.
