From this weekend and for the rest of this season, Pierre Nicolet will be joining the F4 Eurocup 1.6 pack where he will wear number 22. His name is well known in the world of motorsport as his father, Jacques, is the owner of the endurance team, OAK Racing.

Pierre, can you describe yourself in a few words?
I will turn 21 at the end of August and I’m still studying Management in Paris. It has to be a genetic think, because I've always been interested in motorsport. I did a lot of karting when I was younger. At 13, I was lucky enough to be given a competition kart and I spent a whole year training, but then I had to stop. The day I got my license, my dad rewarded me with a day of F3 racing, and it was there where I realised that I wanted to get back into racing! I returned from Scotland, where I was studying, and my dad and I looked at different programmes that I could get into, and we both decided on Auto Sport Academy.

What state of mind are you in before the big race of the season?
I am both extremely enthusiastic and quite anxious at the same time. I’ve only had three days of training. More than anything, I am there to learn, improve and enjoy it. I don’t expect to be turning heads to any great extent! My objective is a pretty modest and realistic one, I aim to come at least 12th.
