Like many racing drivers, Josep María 'Pepe' Martí’s journey began when he started to take part in local karting championships. Racing competitively by the age of 11, it took him just two years to make his mark as in 2019 he triumphed in the junior category of the Spanish Karting Championship while driving for a team owned by F1 superstar Fernando Alonso.
Two years later, Josep made his single-seater debut when he secured a drive for Xcel Motorsport in the Formula Four UAE Championship – securing his first win at Yas Marina Circuit, home of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
