Isle of Man-born Nickolas Ellis will make his GB4 Championship debut with Elite Motorsport at Donington Park.
 
The 17-year-old Cambridge-based driver made his car-racing debut with the Norfolk squad at Brands Hatch last September and now has 22 Ginetta Junior Championship races under his belt, gaining valuable racing experience with Elite.

Ellis, sponsored by Mooch Creative and Thornton Chartered Financial Planners, has tested an Elite GB4 car at the French Val de Vienne circuit and then at Snetterton this month (14 Aug) prompting the teenager to switch to GB4 in what is currently a one-off outing.

Nickolas, who won his fleet at the RS Tera World Championship in sailing, only began karting seriously in 2021 and raced in the British Kart Championship Junior Rotax while conducting Ginetta Junior testing with Elite, having missed the first half of the season due to his GCSEs.
