Chris Dittmann Racing will welcome USA National Karting Champion Alexander Vanchev to its British F4 line-up for the season finale at Brands Hatch this weekend, marking his first race appearance in the championship. The Bulgarian-American driver, who hails from Florida, USA, will take over the seat vacated by Henry Mercier as the team heads to the Kent circuit’s Grand Prix layout for the final three races of the 2026 campaign on October 10–11. Alexander brings a successful karting background to his Formula 4 debut, having secured seven national titles in the United States. His appearance at Brands Hatch will mark[…..]
Tommy Harfield secured Chris Dittmann Racing’s first win of the season at Silverstone with an excellent lights-to-flag drive, while Piotr Orzechowski claimed his first Rookie Cup podium to bring further silverware home for the team. Starting from pole for race two, Tommy made a strong getaway and built a narrow lead over Arjen Kraling, who held second despite coming close to the pit wall after a slow start. Once he settled into a rhythm, Tommy was impressively consistent under pressure from Kraling. He briefly extended his lead to more than a second during a middle stint in which he set[…..]
Chris Dittmann Racing demonstrated strong pace throughout the latest rounds of the Wera Tools F4 British Championship certified by FIA at Donington Park, securing three pole positions, a podium finish and a season-best result during a weekend of mixed fortunes. Tommy Harfield set the benchmark in Saturday morning’s qualifying session, securing pole position for both of the weekend’s main-grid races, while Henry Mercier completed a clean sweep by taking reverse-grid pole for race two. Harfield was immediately involved in the fight at the front in the opening contest. Although he lost the lead on the run to turn one, he[…..]
Chris Dittmann Racing came away from the Wera Tools F4 British Championship certified by FIA weekend at Thruxton with a podium finish after Tommy Harfield continued to impress as the series visited the UK’s fastest circuit. The Hampshire venue provided another challenge for the drivers, having previously taken on the unique characteristics of the Zandvoort Grand Prix circuit last time out. The circuit’s high-speed nature and abrasive surface meant drivers had to balance outright pace with careful tyre management. The result was plenty of action and close battles throughout the field, allowing little margin for error across the weekend’s three[…..]
Super-sub Alba Larsen claimed her first British F4 podium finish of the season at the weekend, taking third place at the Dutch Grand Prix venue of Zandvoort. Following her return to the team at Silverstone, the 17-year-old once again got behind the wheel of her Chris Dittmann Racing machine to gain valuable mileage ahead of her upcoming F1 Academy appearance at the circuit. She hit the ground running with an impressive performance in qualifying, where she was amongst the frontrunners with teammate Tommy Harfield. In the opening race she was running on the fringes of the top ten before late contact[…..]
Chris Dittmann Racing showed promising pace last weekend as the Wera Tools British F4 Championship visited Silverstone, with all four drivers demonstrating glimpses of their potential during an incident-filled weekend. Coming straight after a blisteringly hot Snetterton, the team decamped to Silverstone for the first of two stand-alone events. Intended to give drivers the chance to gain experience at a full Grand Prix venue and aid their single-seater career progression, the 32-car field took on the 18-turn, 3.660-mile circuit with gusto. It was for exactly those reasons that the team welcomed Alba Larsen back to the fold. Having raced for[…..]
F1 Academy title challenger Alba Larsen will once again race for Chris Dittmann Racing, filling the seat vacated by Piotr Orzechowski for the Silverstone and Zandvoort rounds of the 2026 Wera Tools British F4 Championship certified by the FIA. The Danish racer is no stranger to the team, having contested 21 of the 30 races last season, with a best finish of second at Silverstone in the Rookie Cup. This season, she is once again competing in F1 Academy, where she was in contention for a race win in Shanghai. The Ferrari Academy driver will use the track time with[…..]
Chris Dittmann Racing left Snetterton last weekend empty-handed despite demonstrating race-winning pace during the third event of the Wera Tools British F4 Championship season. Following a successful trip to Brands Hatch last time out, where the team secured three top-five finishes and firmly moved into title contention with leading driver Tommy Harfield, hopes were high that the momentum would continue as the series headed to Norfolk for rounds seven, eight and nine. The event got off to a positive start with an official test day on Wednesday, giving the drivers plenty of track time and an opportunity to adapt to[…..]
Chris Dittmann Racing bounced back to form during last weekend’s second round of the Wera Tools F4 British Championship certified by FIA at Brands Hatch, with Tommy Harfield securing the team’s first podium of the year and catapulting himself into the title picture in the process. After a tough start to the season at Donington Park last month, the CDR team faced a very different sort of challenge on the tight 1.2-mile Brands Hatch Indy Circuit, where less than a second separated the entire 30-car field during pre-event testing. Here, more than ever, mistakes would be punished harshly, and that’s[…..]
Canadian-American racer Autumn Fisher will step onboard a Chris Dittmann Racing Tatuus T-421 chassis for her first laps in the Wera Tools F4 British Championship certified by the FIA this weekend. The 18-year-old recently moved into car racing, competing in the French F4 Championship after previously racing karts. She got her season underway at Nogaro earlier last month and has already built up valuable experience in Formula 4 machinery. Having been used to running a Mygale M21-F4 with a Renault engine, she will need to adjust to the chassis and engine package used in the British F4 series. However, her[…..]
