KAYLEE COUNTRYMAN Joins UAE4 Grid With Haas F1 Academy Backing Before USF2000

January 8, 2026

• KAYLEE COUNTRYMAN has signed with Pinnacle Motorsport for UAE4’s opening three rounds before shifting focus to her USF2000 and F1 Academy campaigns. The multi-series strategy shows how today’s rising talents are maximizing opportunities across different platforms, with Countryman securing backing from Haas F1 team for her Academy program.
• The UAE4 championship continues its identity crisis, operating under its third name in three seasons despite keeping the same format. What started as F4 UAE became F4 Middle East, then back to F4 UAE, and now simply UAE4 – because apparently consistent branding is optional when you’re trying to establish a regional series.
• Pinnacle Motorsport has assembled a three-car lineup that spans continents, with COUNTRYMAN joined by Japanese F4 veteran Ryusho Nakazato and karting graduate Anzhe Sun, who’s managed by Nicolas Todt’s All Road Management and planning a British F4 campaign in 2026. The team’s international roster reflects the series’ ambition to attract global talent to Middle Eastern racing.
