Martinius Stenshorne will stay with Hitech GP for the 2025 F3 season.
In his rookie season, Stenshorne finished 18th in the driver standings with victory in the Australian Sprint plus a further second-placed podium finish in the Austrian Sprint.
The 18 year-old McLaren junior will remain with Hitech GP for next season, guaranteeing himself continuity as F3 introduces a new car for the upcoming campaign.
“I’m really happy and excited to be entering my second season of FIA Formula 3 and with Hitech,” commented Stenshorne who hopes to fight for the title next season.
“2024 was a strong first year in the championship and we achieved some good results that also contributed to the team being able to fight for both titles – something I hope we will see again next season.
“I’m looking forward to getting down to work with the new car in the new year.”
Hitech GP’s Team Manager, Paul Bellringer added that he is “delighted” to retain Stenshorne, who will partner rookie, Gerrard Xie, and an unannounced teammate.
“In only his first year on the international stage – one of the most competitive seasons F3 has ever seen – he punctuated his obvious potential with a win in the second round, a podium, and he was regularly in the fight for points.
“When the field is as tight as it was last season, it can be difficult for strong performances to translate to the standings, but within the team, Martinius’ progress was clear for all to see and I feel confident that he will really make his mark in a second season of F3.”
Stenshorne isn’t the only McLaren junior on next year’s F3 grid as Ugo Ugochukwu and Brando Badoer join PREMA.
