Born in London, Ticktum entered karting at the age of eight, competing in Honda Cadets with Project One Racing. He enjoyed early success, culminating in placing second in the National Super One Championship in 2010 before moving into Comer Cadet.[citation needed]
In 2011, he completed the Grand Slam of British national cadet titles — winning the British FKS Championship, National ABkC Super One Championship, British Open Championship and British Grand Prix Championship. This has been achieved by only one other driver. [citation needed]
A year later, Ticktum moved into the international scene, competing in the WSK Euro Series and WSK Masters Series, finishing both championships as the highest placed rookie.[citation needed]
In 2013, Ticktum joined Ricky Flynn Motorsport, finishing second in the CIK FIA European Championship, tying on points with the Champion, and second in the National Super One Championship. The same year Ticktum was awarded the KFJ Andrea Margutti Trophy; previous winners include F1 stars Giancarlo Fisichella, Robert Kubica and most recently Daniil Kvyat.[citation needed]
The following year, Ticktum finished second in the WSK Masters and during his first test with Lanan Racing, in BRDC Formula 4 Championship, he broke the lap record at the Brands Indy circuit.[citation needed]
MSA Formula and two year ban
In 2015, Ticktum graduated to MSA Formula with Fortec Motorsport.[4] He led the early rounds of the Championship, until an incident at Silverstone, where he purposely overtook several cars while under safety car conditions to crash into a rival, Ricky Collard. This saw him receive a two-year ban from motorsport, of which one year was a suspended ban.[5][6] As a result, he finished 6th in his first season of single seater racing.
FIA European Formula 3 Championship
In 2016, Ticktum returned to motorsport, competing in the final round of the FIA European Formula 3 Championship in Hockenheim with Carlin. He then raced in the Macau Grand Prix with Double R Racing finishing 8th in Saturday's qualifying race before retiring early in the main race.[7]
Formula Renault
In January 2017, Ticktum was announced as a member of the Red Bull Junior Team, racing in the 2017 Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 with Arden International.[8] He claimed his only win in the season at Hungaroring and finished the season seventh in the driver standings.[9]
GP3 Series
In September 2017, Ticktum made his debut in the series at Monza with DAMS.[10] He claimed a podium finish in his second full race weekend at the season finale in Abu Dhabi.
FIA Formula 3 World Cup
In November 2017, Ticktum competed in a one-off race at the Macau Grand Prix with Team Motopark and claimed victory after leaders Ferdinand Habsburg and Sérgio Sette Câmara crashed in the final corner.[11] He would win the race again in 2018.
FIA European Formula 3 Championship
In December 2017, it was confirmed that Ticktum would contest the FIA Formula 3 European Championship with Team Motopark in 2018.[12] He would finish the championship in second after leading during the early part of the season.
Super Formula Championship
Ticktum joined Team Mugen for the 2019 season [13] and competed in the first three rounds of the championship before parting ways with Red Bull.[14]
FIA Formula 2 Championship
Ticktum drove for Arden in the final round of the 2018 FIA Formula 2 Championship in Abu Dhabi.[15] In December 2019, it was announced Ticktum would contest the 2020 season with reigning team champions DAMS [16] alongside Sean Gelael.
