Matevos Isaakyan was an established professional competing primarily in single-seater championships across seven seasons from 2014 to 2020. Graded FIA Gold in endurance racing, he raced for JD Motorsport in Formula Renault Eurocup and later joined the SMP Racing driver programme, which fielded him in Formula V8 3.5. He also made brief appearances in GP3 Series, Formula 2 with Sauber Junior Team, and WEC.[1]
Isaakyan took three wins and twelve podiums across seventy-one starts. His strongest performances came in Formula V8 3.5 between 2016 and 2017, where he scored three wins and ten podiums for SMP Racing by AVF. He recorded two podiums in Formula Renault Eurocup and made four starts in Formula 2 in 2019 without reaching the podium. His WEC campaign in 2018 and 2019 comprised five starts for Inter Europol Competition. He finished ahead of George Russell four times and beat Charles Leclerc twice across their overlapping seasons in GP3 and Formula V8 3.5, though both drivers went on to generational success in Formula 1.[2]
Against the established professionals he met regularly, Isaakyan typically finished behind them. He was a regular opponent of Jack Aitken, the 2015 Formula Renault Eurocup champion, and Kevin Jรถrg, and held a losing record against both. His record against the wider field in single-seaters placed him mid-pack among drivers mixing amateurs, semi-professionals and graded professionals in the same championships.
