Oliver James Bearman (born 8 May 2005) is a British racing driver competing in the 2023 Formula 2 Championship for Prema Racing. He was the 2021 Italian and ADAC Formula 4 champion and is a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy. In the 2022 FIA Formula 3 Championship, he finished the season in third place, seven points off winner Victor Martins.

Career

Karting Career

Bearman started karting competitively in 2013, when he raced in the championship of the Trent Valley Kart Club, his local karting club. He then moved to compete in the Super 1 National Championships, where he managed a best finish of second in 2016 and 2017 respectively, driving in the Cadet category.[1] The Brit then won the Kartmasters British Grand Prix in 2017, and he finished his karting career off strongly in 2019 with victory in the IAME International Final, IAME Euro Series and IAME Winter Cup.[2][3]

Lower Formula

2020

In 2020 Bearman made his single-seater debut in the ADAC Formula 4 Championship with US Racing, whilst also racing in three rounds of Italian F4.[4] His campaign in the German series started off with regular points finishes in the first two rounds, before achieving his debut victory at the Hockenheimring.[5] Bearman followed that up by scoring two further podiums, one at the Nürburgring and Oschersleben respectively, and finished seventh in the standings, ahead of fellow rookie teammate Vladislav Lomko, but behind top rookie and fellow teammate Tim Tramnitz.[6] In his appearances in the Italian Championship, the Briton scored a total of two podiums, with one of them being a race win in Vallelunga, leading to him finishing tenth in the end results.[7]

2021

Bearman racing in the 2021 Italian F4 Championship

For the 2021 season, Bearman switched to Van Amersfoort Racing to perform double duties in both the German and Italian F4 Championships.[8] In the Italian series, the Brit would kick off his season with a third place at the Circuit Paul Ricard. Following another podium in the same round Bearman went on a podium and win streak, which would last for nine and seven races respectively. This included two victories in Misano, a hattrick of wins at the Vallelunga Circuit and two wins in Imola.[9][10] However, a disqualification from the third Imola race for an engine irregularity meant that Bearman would lose his streak, having originally won the race.[11] Undeterred, Bearman achieved his eighth win of the season at the following race at the Red Bull Ring, and followed it up with another podium in the second race.[12] In the penultimate round of the season, Bearman won the title with a tenth place in the third race, putting the championship out of reach for his closest rival Tim Tramnitz.[13]

Bearman racing in the 2021 ADAC Formula 4 Championship

In the German championship, Bearman claimed six victories and after a season-long battle with Tramnitz, claimed the title at the season finale at the Nürburgring, thus making him the first driver to achieve two successive Formula 4 titles in a single year.[14]

In September 2021, as reward for his two F4 titles, Bearman was nominated for the Autosport BRDC Award.[15] Additionally, in December 2021, Bearman was awarded the Henry Surtees Award for most outstanding performance by a BRDC rising star.[16]

BRDC Formula 3 Championship

Along with his duties in Formula 4, Bearman raced in the BRDC British Formula 3 Championship with Fortec Motorsports, partnering Roberto Faria and Mikkel Grundtvig.[17] He started his campaign off strongly, scoring two second-place finishes in the first two races at Brands Hatch.[18] Having skipped the following three rounds in order to concentrate on his F4 campaign, Bearman came back at the Snetterton Circuit, where he would win the opening race,[19] and he would follow that up by qualifying on pole for the first race at Silverstone.[20] However, his chances of victory were slashed after losing his front left wheel on the second lap, which meant that a second place in Race 2 would be the highest finish of his weekend.

FIA Formula 3 Championship

On 31 October 2021 Bearman was announced to be participating in the post-season test of the FIA Formula 3 Championship with Prema Racing, partnering Jak Crawford, Arthur Leclerc and Paul Aron.[21] At the end of the year, Bearman was announced to be driving with Prema for the 2022 season alongside Crawford and Leclerc.[22]

Bearman started his season by controlling the first race of the year in Bahrain, although, having crossed the finish line in first place, he was issued a penalty for multiple track limits breaches, which demoted him to second behind Isack Hadjar.[23] A sixth place in the feature race was followed up by a disappointing event at Imola: there, having been denied a points finish in the first race due to a spin that had come as a direct result of teammate Leclerc pushing him onto the grass,[24] Bearman was battling to remain in third place near the end of Sunday's feature race. On the final lap, the Brit caused a collision with Grégoire Saucy at the penultimate corner,[25] which sent the Swiss driver out of the race and caused Bearman to be demoted from fourth to 17th after the race had finished.[26] The next round would pan out more quietly, as a fifth place on Sunday became the Brit's best feature race result at the time.

Bearman would gain form in the subsequent three rounds, as he finished third in all three feature races: Silverstone, where he battled his compatriot Zak O'Sullivan to the line for second, Spielberg, where Bearman had kept his position from start to finish,[27] and Budapest, having been denied second by a fraction of a second. At Spa-Francorchamps, the first event after the summer break, Bearman was able to fight his way to the front during the opening embers of the sprint race, having started from fifth, and took his first victory in the category despite a pair of Safety cars and a Red flag interruption interfering with his race.[28][29] The following day, Bearman once again finished third in the feature race, having overtaken Oliver Goethe on the final lap. Misfortune followed in Zandvoort, as a red flag hampered Bearman's qualifying efforts, leaving the Brit 14th on the grid. During the feature race, a penalty for a collision with O'Sullivan meant that Bearman would not add to his points tally. Undeterred by his slim title chances going into the season finale at Monza, Bearman would finish second in the sprint race courtesy of a double-overtake on Jonny Edgar and Caio Collet into the first chicane.[30] He continued his fight on Sunday, battling for the lead with Zane Maloney before a red flag would end the race prematurely, meaning that Bearman would finish third in the standings, a mere seven points behind champion Victor Martins.[31] Despite being regretful of "all the races where [he] needlessly lost points", the Briton maintained that he was happy to finish third in the championship.[32][33]

FIA Formula 2 Championship

On 14 November 2022, Bearman was announced as a Prema Racing driver for the 2023 Formula 2 Championship, partnering Mercedes junior Frederik Vesti.[34] Bearman started his season in Bahrain with 12th in qualifying, but could not salvage much in the sprint race, finishing P15.[35] Taking advantage of lap 1 chaos in the feature race, Bearman rose to fourth early on. However, tyre degradation proved to be a factor as he was among the first to pit, and fell down the order late on for a disappointing 14th place.[36] In Jeddah, the Briton broke his duck and qualified second having topped practice.[37][38] However, his sprint race ended after Théo Pourchaire braked late and slammed into him, which ended both their races.[39] In the feature race, Bearman battled with Victor Martins early on after seizing the lead at the start. However Bearman spun on his own later on, which dropped him down the order, and he subsequently lost more positions, ultimately finishing in tenth place.[40]

Bearman ended sixth in qualifying at Melbourne, despite an early crash.[41] In a sprint race where he battled many of his rivals, he secured seventh. However in the feature race, Bearman's race came undone when he tangled with Isack Hadjar in the pits, sustaining a puncture. He had to pit again and had a trip to the gravel later on, finishing 17th.[42] The young Brit came back with a vengeance in the next round to claim his maiden F2 victory in the sprint race of the Azerbaijan race weekend. Bearman claimed pole position in Friday's qualifying session in dramatic circumstances, managing to set the fastest lap despite a shunt just minutes before the end of the session resulted in his steering wheel pointing slightly to the right.[43] He started the race in 9th place on the reverse grid after Pourchaire took a grid place penalty.[44]

After coming through the field, outpacing his rivals and setting multiple fastest laps, he took advantage of the chaotic circumstances of the race. In the closing stages of the sprint race, leaders Dennis Hauger, Victor Martins and Jehan Daruvala crashed out in turn 1 following a late safety car restart. After navigating around the pileup, Bearman capitalised on a mistake by teammate Vesti to take the lead before the race was neutralised once more.[45] He became the second youngest race winner in Formula 2 history behind Théo Pourchaire.[46] Bearman was congratulated in parc fermé by Scuderia Ferrari team principal Frédéric Vasseur and sporting director Laurent Mekies before being joined on the podium by Vesti and Hitech Pulse-Eight driver Jak Crawford. The following day, the feature race, Bearman claimed victory and became the ninth driver in GP2 and Formula 2 history to do "the double" and only the fourth as a rookie.[47][48]

He had a disappointing race weekend in Monaco: Bearman retired on lap 23 of the sprint race due to a suspension problem; in the feature race Oliver finished 11th despite even some overtakes and good strategy, he scored no points.

However, he remained his good form by scoring pole position in Barcelona for the feature race on Sunday. He claimed 7th place in the Sprint race on Saturday, with teammate Vesti winning. In the Feature Race, he managed to stay ahead at the start and extended his first stint until Lap 14. He came out 3.5 seconds ahead of Carlin driver Enzo Fittipaldi who had qualified second, but the gap diminished to just half a second by the end of the lap due to his fresh tyres. He cleanly passed several cars who had yet to pit, and despite the much faster pace of Vesti and Martins on fresher tyres towards the end of the race, Bearman remained out of touch and claimed his 3rd race win of the season. This victory pushed Bearman up to 4th place in the Drivers Standings with 70 points, 40 behind Championship leader Vesti.[49]

Formula One

In October 2021, Bearman was named as one of the finalists of the Ferrari Driver Academy's Scouting World Final.[50] The following month, Bearman was confirmed to be joining the Academy along with karting champion Rafael Câmara.[51]

In October 2023, Bearman made his F1 debut in a Formula One car during a private test at Fiorano with Ferrari.[52] He is also set to get his first free practice sessions at the 2023 Mexico City Grand Prix and Abu Dhabi Grand Prix with the Haas F1 Team.[53]

Personal life

Bearman was born 8th May 2005 to David and Terri Bearman he has a younger brother Thomas, and a younger sister Amelie who rides horses. Bearman's younger brother Thomas currently races in karting. In club racing, their father, David, drove with the number 87, chosen because Ollie was born on May 8 and Thomas on August 7; both brothers have since raced with the number.[citation needed]
