Pace Performance has confirmed that it will move into single-seaters for the first time with a move into the GB4 Championship in 2025.
The team’s GB4 expansion comes after a maiden campaign in the Ginetta Junior Championship last year, and aims to grow its reputation for providing the highest standards of engineering resource and driver development. The team has already taken delivery of its GB4 machines for the 2025 season, and is set to embark on a major pre-season testing campaign across the UK.
Owner and ex-racer Sean Byrne started the Shropshire-based team with aims of creating a fresh approach towards the sport, focusing on engineering excellence and creating a driver development programme to equip drivers for not just their current campaigns, but their future careers also.
As part of this approach, Pace Performance has established a major partnership with Kokoro Performance, an industry leader in driver coaching and performance services. Founded in 2017, Kokoro has been a major force behind the careers of Zak O’Sullivan, Tom Lebbon, Zane Maloney, Kiern Jewiss and several other rising stars of the sport.
Team owner Sean Byrne said: “Joining the GB4 Championship for 2025 has always been part of the team's plan. It’s an exciting new challenge that we are very much looking forward to taking on. We anticipate that the series will be extremely competitive with the new car being introduced, and we are up for that challenge!
“Our team has extensive knowledge of the car and the championship due to the great people we have working behind the scenes. Being an ex-driver myself I have been on both sides of a team and with my experience as a driver, and in business I believe we have the right group of people in place to compete at the front from the start of the season.”
