My name is Malachi Morrison, and I’m a 17-year-old British racing driver currently leading the Rye House Kart Club Championship. I’m writing to invite you to be part of a unique and ambitious journey as I prepare to take the next major step in my motorsport career: competing in the 2026 GB4 Championship. I am currently seeking sponsors and commercial partners who are passionate about high-performance sport, innovation, and meaningful change, both on and off the track.
My motorsport journey began five years ago at Daytona Milton Keynes, where I first discovered my love for racing. Since then, I’ve worked my way up through the ranks with determination and consistency, graduating from arrive-and-drive to highly competitive owner karting. In 2022, I made the leap into owner karts, and in 2024, I completed my first full season at Rye House, finishing 8th out of 39 drivers, a strong debut that gave me the momentum I needed to push forward. In 2025, I returned stronger, smarter, and faster. I’m now proud to be leading the championship, with a string of strong finishes and consistent podiums, showing my readiness to move into the single-seater arena.
Outside of the cockpit, I’m equally committed to building a complete and professional foundation for my future in motorsport. I’m currently studying a Level 3 Diploma in Motorsport Engineering (Race Technician) at the National College for Motorsport in Silverstone, the heart of British racing. This hands-on technical training gives me unique insight into the cars I drive, understanding not just how to race, but how to optimize and care for the machinery behind the performance. I believe this combination of driving talent and engineering knowledge will make me a more complete racing driver, capable of delivering results both on and off the track.
The GB4 Championship is the next step in my career and my first opportunity to compete at a national level in single-seater formula racing. It represents not only a significant increase in competition but also a major platform for driver development, media exposure, and long-term career progression. GB4 serves as a proven pathway to GB3 and beyond, and I intend to make my mark in the 2026 season. However, stepping into single-seaters brings significant financial demands, this is where I am actively looking to build strong, mutually beneficial partnerships with sponsors who share my ambition.
But this journey isn’t just about chasing lap times. As a young Black British driver, I’m passionate about promoting diversity and inclusion in motorsport, a sport that still lacks broad representation at many levels. My presence on the grid is a statement in itself: that motorsport is for everyone, and that talent should never be limited by background. With your support, I want to serve as a role model for underrepresented communities and show that it is possible to rise through the ranks with focus, perseverance, and opportunity.
In return for your sponsorship, I can offer a professional and dynamic partnership that delivers real value. I am committed to representing your brand with integrity and visibility across multiple platforms. Benefits of sponsorship can include:
Prominent branding on racewear, helmet, and car livery
Exposure at race circuits across the UK through the GB4 Championship
Regular content creation and brand promotion via social media platforms
Inclusion in behind-the-scenes media, vlogs, and race weekend updates
Corporate appearances, networking opportunities, and PR representation
Potential for branded STEM outreach, inclusion campaigns, or CSR initiatives
Additionally, I bring the technical expertise to engage with your team on engineering and motorsport-related content, and the personal drive to amplify our shared message. Whether you're a company in the automotive, tech, lifestyle, finance, or education sectors, your brand will be associated with a disciplined, driven, and forward-thinking athlete on a powerful upward trajectory.
Together, we can achieve more than just results on track, we can tell a story that inspires, innovates, and changes perceptions. I would be proud to carry your brand into the 2026 GB4 Championship and beyond, building a long-term relationship that grows as I progress through GB3 and ultimately into professional GT or single-seater racing.
If you're ready to join me on this exciting journey, I would love to connect and discuss how we can align our goals and values to build something remarkable together.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to speaking with you.
