FWS: Payton Westcott announced for Van Amersfoort Racing in Formula Winter Series

Van Amersfoort Racing has announced that it will field American rising star Payton Westcott in the 2025 Formula Winter Series.

Westcott has been tipped as a leading female talent during her karting journey, having repeatedly won KA100 kart events in the United States. In 2024, Payton’s programme was split across the Atlantic, as she was selected to compete in the Champions of The Future Academy Program, as part of F1 Academy’s Discover Your Drive initiative. She competed in the first three rounds of the season in the OK-N Senior class, netting a top ten finish in the second final at Cremona, Italy.

Despite a season that was hindered by a broken wrist sustained in June – which she continued to race with – Westcott has once again been on podium and race-winning form in the U.S. during 2024.

Westcott will now make her car racing debut in the Formula Winter Series, and will be looking to register strong results as she adapts to the Tatuus T-421, as well as Portugal and Spain’s leading international racing circuits.

Viewers across the globe can watch every moment of the 2025 Formula Winter Series, which will air live on the Winter Series YouTube Channel.
