The four finalists who will contest the 2024 Silverstone Autosport BRDC Young Driver of the Year Award have been selected.

Formula 3 race winner Arvid Lindblad, recently crowned British F4 champion Deagen Fairclough, GB3 Champion Louis Sharp and Italian F4 Champion Freddie Slater will battle it out for prizes that include a test in Aston Martin F1 machinery and £200,000. Of the four finalists, only Lindblad has been a finalist before, in 2023. The drivers will be put through their paces in a thorough test of their fitness, as well as two days of testing at Silverstone in F2, GT3 and LMP3 machinery.

Dre Harrison and Autosport Chief Editor (and Judge!) Kevin Turner is on the latest edition of the Autosport Podcast to talk about all four finalists' seasons, such as Fairclough's dominance in British F4, Lindblad's four wins as a rookie in F3, Freddie Slater taking the Italian F4 Crown, and Louis Sharp's recent GB3 title win, as well as a behind the scenes look at the judging process. Be sure to tune in on January 29th, 2025 to see who wins!
