Rodin Motorsport has announced GB3 Champion Louis Sharp will drive for the team in the FIA Formula 3 championship in 2025.
The British-born New Zealander graduates to F3 after a successful GB3 campaign in which he won five races, with a further five podiums, taking the title at the final round at Brands Hatch last weekend.
Sharp had previously won the British F4 title with Rodin Carlin in 2022, and joins esteemed company such as Daniel Ricciardo, George Russell and Lando Norris who enjoyed relationships with the manufacturer in their junior years.
In a statement, Sharp said: “I’m obviously excited to be making the next step up to FIA Formula 4 – even more so as I’m back with Rodin Motorsport which has been such an important factor in all my successes to date.
“Though I’m still coming to terms with what I’ve achieve winning back-to-back titles, I’m already starting to concentrate on what’s ahead.
“I’m really looking forward to be racing alongside Grands Prix in 2026 and will do everything I can to maintain my current momentum.
“I’m now looking forward to starting my F3 preparations later this month in Spain and confident both the team and I will be ready hen the lights go out in Australia.”
Rodin owner David Dicker said that Sharp “has been such an exciting young talent to watch develop over the years” and was “looking forward to seeing him back out on track.”
Sharp also received praise from the F3 Team Manager Sam Waple, who said: “Having the new chassis will provide a level playing field for the rookies and Louis has shown throughout his British F4 and GB3 campaigns how quickly he adapt to new cars and tracks.
“We are really looking forward to working with Louis once again.”
