Colton Herta (born 20 March 2000 in Valencia, California) is an American racing driver and the son of IndyCar and Champ Car driver Bryan Herta.[1]

Career

Colton made his karting debut in 2010, aged 10, and made his single-seaters debut in 2013, aged 13, finishing second in the SBF2000 Summer Series. In 2014, he made a one-off appearance in the Global RallyCross Championship Lites, being the youngest driver to compete in the series.

In 2015, he made his debut in the UK-based MSA Formula series, as the youngest driver and the only American on a grid that consisted mostly of Britons, and got his first win in the second race at Snetterton Circuit in August, thus helping the United States win the Nations Cup. He went on to collect three more victories over the course of the season, finishing third overall.[2]

For 2016, he was planning to move to the newly renamed BRDC British F3 series, but was too young to compete at the opening round, instead making occasional appearances.[3] Wanting to complete a full season he made the switch to the Euroformula Open Championship, staying with Carlin. He becomes one of the contenders for the Rookie Trophy.
