GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • JAMIE CHADWICK makes a smart pivot from Formula 1 dreams to sportscar racing reality, becoming Genesis’s first junior driver and WEC reserve after claiming that breakthrough Indy NXT victory in 2024. Her third-place finish in the 2025 European Le Mans Series helped set herself up as the veteran anchor of Genesis’s new junior program.
  • 17-year-old Lee takes the traditional junior single-seater route up to GB3 with Elite Motorsport after a challenging Formula 4 campaign across multiple series. His 20th in F4 Middle East and 22nd in Spanish F4 aren’t headline numbers, but his strategic choice of GB3 shows someone thinking long-term about building the foundation needed for serious European motorsport progression.
  • Shin brings the most impressive junior formula credentials to the Genesis program, parlaying his third-place Euroformula finish (with four wins and eight podiums) into an FIA F3 seat with powerhouse team Hitech GP. The 21-year-old Korean’s consistent podium performances across Formula Regional Oceania and Euroformula demonstrate the kind of steady excellence that translates well to F3’s highly competitive environment.

UPCOMING:

  • GB3 Season Opening Round
  • FIA F3 Championship Bahrain
