Biography

Multiple British F4 race-winner McKenzy Cresswell will join Chris Dittmann Racing (CDR) as he steps up to the GB3 Championship partnered by the BRDC in 2022. 

The 15-year-old won six British F4 races in 2021, two more than any other driver, with five additional podiums on his way to third overall in the standings in his first car racing campaign. 

Finishing just 26 points away from the eventual champion and only a solitary point away from the runner-up, Cresswell’s first victory came at Oulton Park after a dominant performance that saw him take the flag five seconds clear of the opposition. 

A further win came next time out at Knockhill, before sensational doubles at Croft and at the season finale at Brands Hatch.

Cresswell was born in the UK but raised in Austin, Texas, and was competing in karting across the USA at regional and national level before moving back to the UK at the age of 12. His racing activity continued in Britain and Europe at Junior Rotax level before his successful graduation to F4 at the start of 2021. 

Now focusing on the step up to GB3, the Surrey resident has enjoyed several days of testing since the conclusion of the season, and is looking forward to making his series graduation alongside Branden Oxley in the team.
