Christopherson Racing is a racing team based in Birmingham, England. Founded in 2014, and originally conceived to aid the career of team found Jack Christopherson's son, the team has re-emerged since his retirement from active racing as a Formula 4 team in their national series.

Team History

2014 - First iteration

The team started life at the beginning of 2014, when they entered a single-car team into the F3RWRS championship, as a means of giving Jack Christopherson Jr a foothold on the junior formulae ladder.

Their debut was an excellent one, with Christopherson Jr leading the championship after the first race weekend in Adelaide. By the end of the season, the Brit had notched up two wins, plus another three podiums, on his way to 4th in the championship.

Midway through the year, the team added a second car for IBR-backed youngster Lorenzo Crescenzi. While the Italian did manage a podium at the Spa-Francorchamps weekend, he was generally less impressive than the eponymous team owner's son.

At the end of the year, the team was low on funds, and was forced to wind up at the end of the year to settle its debts.

2018 - Rebirth

After a four year absence, the team returned anew, this time in the Anglo-Irish F4 series, this time running British youngster Sebastian Priaulx alongside Bermudian driver Imani Burrell.
