Stenshorne was also set to compete full-time in the 2022 ADAC Formula 4 Championship, but VAR withdrew from the first round due to supply chain concerns.[20] The team returned for the second round, but VAR's drivers were classified under guest drivers, resulting in Stenshorne to be classified as a guest driver.
