🇮🇳 Aryaman Bansal

Aryaman Bansal won the GB4 championship in 2025 as a second-year driver competing across three Formula 4 series in Europe. His primary campaign came in GB4, where he claimed four wins and eleven podiums from twenty starts for Elite Motorsport, a competitive team that seasons strong drivers in the feeder ladder. Alongside this, Bansal contested British F4 with Fortec Motorsports, taking one win from seventeen starts, and made brief appearances in Italian F4 and Spanish F4 with more modest results. Across all platforms, he accumulated five wins from forty-three starts over two seasons, averaging a finishing position of eighth place in classified races.[1]

Bansal's record against his most frequent rivals reveals a pattern of consistency within the mid-field tier. He established a strong head-to-head advantage over Tom Ingram Hill, who rates as a significantly less experienced driver, winning that contest decisively. Against more accomplished drivers such as Isaac Phelps, Daniel Guinchard, and Alexandros George Kattoulas, each of whom rates substantially higher than Bansal's 3,862, he produced a roughly even split in wheel-to-wheel contests. He also recorded individual victories over several stronger professional drivers, including Silver-graded Jimmy Piszcyk and former champion Fionn Mclaughlin, though these do not form a pattern. His dominance over Caitlyn McDaniel, a club-level driver, carries no particular significance.[2]

The 2025 campaign, crowned with the GB4 title, marks Bansal's breakthrough in what remains an early career. His recent activity in Italian F4 has been limited, and his performance in Spanish F4 in late 2024 ended with an uncompetitive result. With the GB4 championship secured, Bansal now faces the traditional progression pathway from junior to senior formulas; whether his title will translate to competitive pace at higher levels remains to be determined by future seasons.
