MotoGP legend Mick Doohan’s son will make his sꩲingle-seater debut in 2018 with the Prema Theodore Racing ADAC Formula 4 squad. 

Jack Doohan - 💙son of five-time 500cc MotoGP wor💎ld champion Mick - recently turned 15 and graduates from karting to contest five rounds of the Italian and German ADAC F4 championships with Prema-backed Theodore Racing. 

The Australian was n🌃amed on the renowned Red Bull Formula 1 junior driver programme last year.

“I’m really looking forward to being 🌼part of the Prema team as a Red Bull Junior Driver in some rounds of the ADAC and Italian F4 cℱhampionships,” Doohan said.

“To drive for a team as well-respecte𝓡d and successful as Prema in 2018 is something I could have only dreamt of at the start of 2017 when I arrived in Europe to compete in karts. 

"My experience gained in karts from the age of eight has provided me with a solid foundation, but it’s now time to take my motorsport career t🌸o the next level.”

“It will be♒ really interesting to work with Jack, who will make his first steps in single-seater racing this year,” Prema Theodore Racing team principal Angelo Rosin added. 

“Coming from such a high-profile background in motor racing, I’m sure he will adapt himself really﷽ quickly to the new environmen꧙t. The goal for him is to increase his mileage and experience so to prepare for a high-profile step up in 2019.”

Doohan will also enter the British F4 serie🍨s with Arden International, having carried out 🌟his first test in a British F4 car with the team at Snetterton last October.
