Rookie Racing Training Academy

Today is a proud day for everyone involved with R1 Racing and Rookie Racing.
As the Rotax British Kart Championship gets underway, nine drivers line up on the grid in the brand-new Rotax E10 Electric Cadet category, a class that we have been honoured to help launch alongside Rotax 🤝

What you see today is the result of months of planning, testing, preparation and belief from drivers, families and the many people working behind the scenes to bring this exciting new chapter of karting to life. 📖

From introducing complete beginners through the Rookie Academy, to supporting drivers on the national stage with R1 Racing, creating clear pathways in karting has always been at the heart of what we do. To see nine E10 drivers taking their place on the grid at the British Championship is something we're incredibly proud of. ⚡️

A huge thank you to Rotax for placing their trust in us to help deliver this programme, and to Motorsport UK for their support and guidance as the category takes its first steps onto the national stage. 🙏

Most importantly, thank you to the families and drivers who have embraced something new and become part of the journey from day one. 1️⃣
