Fortec Motorsports is delighted to welcome Emily Cotty to the team, with the talented young racer joining for the British Grand Prix support weekend in the Wera Tools F4 British Championship, certified by the FIA.

The 15-year-old achieved notable success in karting, including securing the Super One Series Junior Rotax title in 2024. She made her British F4 debut at the close of that season and followed up with an appearance in the Formula Trophy UAE alongside the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

In her rookie season so far in 2025, Emily has taken part in the F4 Middle East Championship—helping to secure the Teams’ title—and the Formula Winter Series, where she continued to broaden her knowledge and experience behind the wheel.

Her focus for this year is Italian F4, where she has claimed five Women’s victories in six races to date, while studying for ten GCSEs. She will also contest the E4 Championship, which begins in July.

Emily will link up with Henry Joslyn, Ary Bansal, and Tom Ingram-Hill at Fortec Motorsports for the first-ever Wera Tools British F4 races alongside the 2025 Formula 1 Qatar Airways British Grand Prix. Taking place at Silverstone over the weekend of 3rd–6th July, it will be the first time in history that Formula 1, Formula 2, Formula 3 and Formula 4 have raced together at the same event.

“It’s an absolute pleasure to join Fortec for the British Grand Prix F4 support race, an exciting initiative for 2025, which I hope will continue in the future. Thank you to the team at Fortec for having me. I’m excited to be racing with Henry, Ary, and Tom to deliver results out on track for the team during this iconic race weekend.”

“Emily has already demonstrated impressive speed and maturity in her transition from karting to various F4 series. Her commitment to both her racing and her studies is exemplary, and we’re thrilled to offer her this platform at Silverstone alongside the British Grand Prix. It’s a fantastic opportunity for her to gain experience, and the team is excited to work with her as she continues to develop.”
