Irish racer Conor Grant will remain in the GB4 Championship for the 2027 season with Douglas Motorsport, and will lead the team’s charge at next month’s Snetterton Winter Series. 

Grant was the runner-up in this year’s GB4 Rookie Title classification, and demonstrated massive progress as the campaign went on. 

The 19-year-old entered GB4 with just a handful of single-seater races behind him in the USA, but quickly got to grips with the UK racing scene, taking a breakthrough top-10 finish at the Silverstone season opener. 

A first top-six followed at Donington Park, and a breakthrough podium was next, with third place during the return visit to Silverstone. He went one better at Donington Park in September, storming to second place in the event finale as he maintained an upwards trajectory. 

Conor also made massive gains in qualifying. After mixing it with the midfield at the start of the season, he was never outside the top-10 for the rest of the campaign, and qualified fifth three times across the Silverstone and Snetterton events in the summer. 

With a full season behind him, the Wexford racer will be amongst the favourites for the inaugural four-race Winter Series on 24/25 October, and again for the main season in 2027.
