British F4 Championship – Donington Park

James Piszcyk made a strong start to his 2025 British F4 Championship season, securing a race win at Donington Park.

The 18 year old, now in his second year with Rodin Motorsport, aims to build on his success in the UK as the 2024 Australian F4 champion.

In Qualifying, Piszcyk’s times were consistent, earning the fifth grid spot for Race 1 with a time of 1:05.2, placing him only two-tenths from pole.

Race 1 saw the Australian charge to third place, but a five second penalty for a false start demoted him to ninth.

A strong finish to the weekend was still on the cards for Piszcyk, with the top 12 reverse grid format for Race 2 meaning he began from P8. The South Australian completed many overtakes during the opening lap, finishing fourth.

Piszyck began Race 3 in fourth, proving a great start that moved him into third place ahead of Henry Joslyn, and later chasing first place after a second safety car, winning his third career British F4 win.

“I’m super happy to come away with a win, and scoring big points was big in what we hope could be a great season for us,” Piszyck said.

“It’s all about keeping it clean when you know track limits are being looked at all weekend. I made sure of that a couple of times over both days – it paid off for us in race two and again in race three.

“I’m super proud of the team and would like to thank them for trusting me and my sponsors for supporting us.”

16 year old Australian Xavier Avramides also competed in the first round the 2025 British F4 Championship, demonstrating impressive improvements across the three races.

Although Avramides finished 20th for Race 1, he was able to secure P11 in Race 2 and took home P12 for Race 3.

The second round of the 2025 British F4 Championship heads to Silverstone circuit on 2-3 May.

The second race saw Heuzenroeder improve his first race finish, coming home in eighth and two-tenths behind Rodin Motorsport’s Abbi Pulling.

The final race of the weekend brought drama with a reverse grid, with Pradel being caught in a collision between Freddie Slater and Nikita Johnson, resulting in a DNF. Ninovic also unfortunately did not finish the race.
