Guild Racing wins British F4 Esports Championship
Guild Racing has won the team championship in the 16 race British F4 Esports Championship, with our full pro driver pairing of Remy Gilbert (17) and Leo Brown (17) pushing Scuderia Ferrari into second spot, whilst Guild Academy driver Henry Moore (16) raced to second place in the individual competition.
In addition to Moore’s second place overall, Gilbert finished the season in third and Brown in fifth as Guild drivers dominated the competition. As well as Guild Racing taking the Teams Championship, as their sole representative the 16-year-old Moore accumulated enough points for Guild Academy to position fourth in the teams standings, as well.
Nervy night at Brands Hatch
The final round at Brands Hatch was a tactical back and forth between Guild and Scuderia Ferrari as both teams knew every position counted, with Guild carrying only a 20 point advantage into the final races. Guild Racing’s full pro roster, Gilbert and Brown, sensibly managed both races, man-marking the Ferrari drivers and finishing the season 32 points ahead of the rest of the field, ahead of other major motorsport names including Aston Martin and WIlliams and esports powerhouse, G2 Esports.
With remarkable scoring across the season, Guild Academy driver Henry Moore, 16, missed out on top spot in the driver championship having faced an uphill battle at Brands Hatch in round eight, bringing a qualifying ban into the final two-race event. Despite this, Henry secured second spot in the individual championships behind Ferrari’s Graham Carroll, a stunning result for the schoolboy.
The three drivers have been guided by Guild Racing Team Principal, Seb Hawkins, whose scouting has discovered a trio of brilliant next gen British racing talent, a team he hopes will kick on and compete for Guild in global competitions:
Hawkins said of his team, “This season has been a testament to the development, maturity and racecraft of our drivers. Leo, Remy and Henry are fantastic talents and I am incredibly impressed with their performances. They have competed against some really experienced talent, who have raced and won in the biggest global sim championships. Now, all three will move onto their next phase of development and their scope to improve is huge.”
Nick Westwood, Chief Strategy Officer at Guild added further, “What a remarkable season from our three drivers, and also for Guild Racing in general. This UK win fulfils another milestone for Guild Racing, as we build out a programme that provides motorsport pathways for male and female drivers to take the journey from bedroom to real world racing. In this first year of Guild Racing we have won and competed at the highest level and in 2025 we will be launching many more initiatives to give prospects the chance to perform in sim racing.”
Guild Racing launched in late 2023 and in just over a year has won competitions in eWorld Rally Championship, Motorsport UK’s British F4 Esports Championship, as well as finishing sixth in the Esports World Cup earlier this year. In addition, they have recently awarded contracts to two female sim drivers following a UK wide talent search with Sky Broadband and stand second in the real world, on track US based championship, Prodigy Three Championship.
