World karting champion Ethan Jeff-Hall will race in British Formula 4 next year with Argenti Motorsport.
Jeff-Hall won the world OK title with a last-lap move in a wet final at the PF International circuit in September. He combined his karting campaign with a first season in cars where he also won a title, in the Ginetta Junior Championship.
He recently took part in the Ferrari Driver Academy’s scouting world final.
“Heading into the 2025 British F4 season with Argenti Motorsport, I’m excited and ready to face the challenge,” he said. “Winning championships like Ginetta Juniors and the FIA World Karting title has taught me a lot about consistency, adaptability, and handling pressure at the highest level.
“I know British F4 is a big step up, but I feel confident that my previous experiences will help me quickly adapt to the car and the competition. I’m eager to learn, push myself, and aim for strong results from the start. It’s a new chapter, and I’m ready to give it everything I’ve got.”
Team principal Michael Meadows added: “We are very happy to welcome Ethan to Argenti. It’s clear he has a lot of talent, and what he has achieved this year is incredible, so moving into British F4 is the ideal next step and we look forward to helping him achieve further success.”
Jeff-Hall’s nearest rival in Ginetta Juniors, runner-up Chase Fernandez, is one of three drivers to be announced by Xcel Motorsport for British F4 in 2025, together with two karting graduates: South African Cole Hewetson, who will also race for the team in F4 United Arab Emirates and UAE-based Theo Palmer, who will join British F4 from round two after his 15th birthday.
