Bearman, Browning, Priaulx and Rees next Superstars
The British Racing Drivers’ Club has announced the four drivers who have been added to its BRDC Superstars programme for 2022.
Ollie Bearman, Luke Browning,
Seb Priaulx and Matthew Rees join the scheme, which began in 2008 and offers tailored training, development, and fitness programmes for drivers.
Bearman won both the Italian and German Formula 4 titles last year and will graduate into FIA F3 this season as a Ferrari junior, having also been a 2021 Aston Martin Autosport BRDC Award finalist. Browning, the 2020 British F4 champion, finished third in German F4 last season and will move into the GB3 Championship this year with Hitech GP.
Rees, who won the British F4 title last year, will also move into GB3 this term, with JHR Developments. Priaulx became the first Porsche Carrera Cup North America champion last year, but has yet to announce his 2022 plans.
“I think they are four incredible talents that I know we can help nurture into top-line drivers,” said BRDC Superstars director Andy Meyrick.
Those remaining as BRDC Superstars include 2021 AMABA winner Zak O’sullivan and 2018 victor Tom Gamble, Formula E driver Dan Ticktum, British Touring Car Championship race winner Jake Hill, Porsche Carrera Cup GB champions Dan Harper and Harry King, former European Le Mans Series champion Phil Hanson, GT driver Ben Tuck and FIA F3 racer Jonny Edgar.
