Alex Gardner is a 16 year old Queensland race car driver. After a successful career in junior go-karting, hr made my first step into circuit racing in 2022 in the Hyundai Excel series, as well as having his first exposure on the international stage. At 15, he was one of the youngest drivers selected by Motorsport Australia and the FDA for the 2022 Ferrari Driver Academy (FDA) Asia Pacific Selection Program at Sepang International F1 Circuit in Malaysia, where he made the top 6 drivers. His aim is to be the best he can be - to make the most of everyday, learn through each training session, each experience and to apply those learnings. In 2023, he is driving for race team Volante Rosso in the Radical Cup Australia Championship, with a view to driving the LeMans 24 hour in the next few years.
