Oliver "Ollie" Bearman (born 8 May 2005) is a British racing driver, who is competing in the 2021 BRDC British Formula 3 Championship and the Italian F4 Championship, driving for Fortec Motorsports and Van Amersfoort Racing respectively.
Career
Karting career
Bearman started karting competitively in 2013, when he raced in the championship of his local karting club, the Trent Valley Kart Club. He then moved to compete in the Super 1 National Championships, where he managed a best finish of second in 2016 and 2017 respectively, driving in the Cadet category.[1] The Brit then won the Kartmasters British Grand Prix in 2017, and he finished his karting career off strongly in 2019 with victory in the IAME International Final, IAME Euro Series and IAME Winter Cup.[2][3]
Lower formulae
In 2020 Bearman made his single-seater debut in the ADAC Formula 4 Championship with US Racing, whilst also racing in three rounds of Italian F4.[4] His campaign in the German series started off with regular points finishes in the first two rounds, before achieving his debut victory at the Hockenheimring.[5] Bearman followed that up by scoring two further podiums, one at the Nürburgring and Oschersleben respectively, and finished seventh in the standings, ahead of fellow rookie teammate Vladislav Lomko, but behind top rookie and fellow teammate Tim Tramnitz.[6] In his appearances the Italian Championship, the Briton scored a total of two podiums, with one of them being a race win in Vallelunga, leading to him finishing tenth in the end results.[7]
For the 2021 season, Bearman switched to Van Amersfoort Racing to perform double duties in both the German and Italian F4 Championships.[8] In the Italian series, the Brit would kick off his season with a third place at the Circuit Paul Ricard. Following another podium in the same round Bearman went on a podium and win streak, which would last for nine and seven races respectively. This included two victories in Misano, a hattrick of wins at the Vallelunga Circuit and two wins in Imola.[9][10] However, a disqualification from the third Imola race for an engine irregularity meant that Bearman would lose his streak, having originally won the race.[11] Undeterred, Bearman achieved his eighth win of the season at the following race at the Red Bull Ring, and followed it up with another podium in the second race.[12] In the penultimate round of the season, Bearman won the title with a tenth place in the third race, putting the championship out of reach for his closest rival Tim Tramnitz.[13]
BRDC Formula 3 Championship
Along with his duties in Formula 4, Bearman raced in the BRDC British Formula 3 Championship with Fortec Motorsports, partnering Roberto Faria and Mikkel Grundtvig.[14] He started his campaign off strongly, with two second-place finishes in the first two races at Brands Hatch.[15]
