8-year-old Harlen Bell is a Go-Kart racer from Queensland, Australia with hopes of becoming the next big thing in Formula One.
The young Australian started his racing career at the age of 6 where he practiced as much as possible at Ipswich Kart Club.
His first race took place shortly after he turned 7; enjoyment of the sport becoming a living and breathing passion.
His choice of number to display on his kart revolved around #7, holding significance with his birth date and age of his first race, taking major influence from ex-Formula 1 driver Kimi Räikkönen – his favourite.
Bell has had great achievements at such a young age after taking to the karting scene, showing promising pace and expertise.
During his first year of racing he has competed at national level with the Australian Karting Championship round in Bolivar, South Australia, finishing as high as 8th throughout the weekend.
This was all while fighting against others who were up to 10 years of age.
An outstanding effort during a rookie year.
Bell has achieved a number of podiums in Queensland, proving to be the new generation of racing in Australia.
The young Queenslander has won the last four rounds at Toowoomba Kart Club, with podiums at Warwick Kart Club to match.
The most recent box ticked for Bell was setting a new fastest lap time for his class at Ipswich Kart Club.
All of these lead to an exciting career, especially as they are already such huge achievements.
