British-Swedish racing driver Arvid Lindblad, dubbed 'the next Max Verstappen', started karting when he was just five years old.

He made his debut F4 single-seater car race in 2022 and has since climbed the divisions each year. The 17 year old appeared in his first F1 showrun in September 2024 for Red Bull, and later announced he'd compete in the 2025 FIA F2 Championship for Campos Racing. In January 2025, Lindblad won seven races in the Formula Regional Oceania Championship, leaving him one win away from qualifying for an FIA Super Licence, which would allow him to race in F1.
