BEYOND THE GRID: Ollie Bearman on his flying start to F1 and how he's just getting started

With points on his surprise debut with Ferrari, and another top-10 finish with Haas in Azerbaijan, Ollie Bearman has made a flying start to his F1 career.
But the young Briton is only just getting started. In 2025 the 19-year-old joins Haas as a full-time driver where he will have the chance to show what he can do every single race weekend.
On this latest episode of Beyond The Grid, Bearman tells host Tom Clarkson all about the challenge ahead and how he's been stepping up from Formula 2.
Bearman also delves into the surprise chances he's had this year, including how he handled the pressure when he got the last-minute call to race for Ferrari in Saudi Arabia, the advice Charles Leclerc gave him, and how his race for Haas in Azerbaijan felt different.
He also remembers moving from the UK to go racing in Italy, and how he's looking forward to starting his first full F1 season in 2025.
