Jack Sherwood has been confirmed as Xcel Motorsport’s second signing for its maiden GB3 assault.
Sherwood began his car racing career with Elite Motorsport in 2021, coming 24th in entry-level sportscar series Ginetta Junior, and since then has spent the last three years racing in Formula 4.
He continued with Elite in 2022 and scored two victories en-route to fifth in GB4’s inaugural season at the wheel of a first-generation F4 car. He then switched to more modern machinery in British F4, finishing 15th overall with three podiums at Chris Dittmann Racing in 2023, and last year improved to fifth in the standings and eight podiums with Rodin Motorsport.
The 18-year-old is the fifth full-time driver from last year’s British F4 championship to graduate to GB3 for 2025, and he will race alongside GB3 sophomore Patrick Heuzenroeder, who was announced by Xcel earlier this week.
“I’m really excited to be joining Xcel Motorsport for my rookie GB3 season,” said Sherwood. “After a strong 2024 in British F4, I feel ready to take this next step.
“GB3 is a highly competitive championship, but I’m confident that with Xcel’s support, we can achieve some great results. I can’t wait to get started and see what we can accomplish together.”
“We’re delighted to have Jack joining us for the 2025 GB3 season,” added Xcel’s team principal Gary Bonnor. “He showed great pace and consistency in British F4 last year, and we have no doubt he will carry that momentum into GB3.
“Jack’s work ethic and determination make him a great fit for our team, and we’re looking forward to seeing him develop and challenge for strong results in his rookie year.”
