Momentum Motorsports has confirmed its driver line-up for the 2026 Formula Regional Americas (FRAC) and Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.) seasons. The team combines returning experience with emerging talent as it aims to build on recent success.
Furthermore, the announcement highlights Momentum Motorsports’ continued commitment to developing drivers across the junior single-seater ladder. As a result, the team enters the new campaign with strong ambitions in both categories.
Autiello returns to defend Masters crown with Momentum Motorsports in 2026 FRAC
Anthony Autiello will lead the team’s FRAC effort as he returns to defend his Masters class title. He enjoyed a standout 2025 season, where he secured the championship through consistent podium finishes and race-winning performances.
Consequently, Autiello now targets back-to-back titles, bringing both confidence and experience into the new campaign.
“I’m excited to be back with Momentum Motorsports for another season,” expressed Autiello. “Last year was an incredible experience winning the Masters championship, and the goal this year is to come back even stronger and defend that title. The team knows what it takes, and I’m ready to get to work.”
Day steps up to F4 U.S. challenge
Meanwhile, Luca Day progresses to the F4 U.S. championship after competing in the Ligier Junior Formula Championship last season. He demonstrated clear development and potential throughout 2025, which earned him the opportunity to move up the ranks.
Moreover, Day benefits from continuity with the team, having already worked closely with Momentum Motorsports. This familiarity should support a smoother transition into the highly competitive F4 field.
“I’m really looking forward to stepping up to F4 with Momentum Motorsports,” added Day. “Having already worked with the team last year, I feel comfortable and confident heading into the season. This is a big opportunity for me to grow as a driver and compete at a higher level.”
Momentum Motorsports team confident ahead of 2026 FRAC and F4 U.S. campaigns
Team owner Phil Picard expressed strong confidence in both drivers while outlining the team’s expectations for the season ahead. He emphasised the balance between proven performance and future potential within the line-up.
“We’re excited to bring Anthony back to defend his Master’s title and to welcome Luca into our F4 program,” explained Picard. “Anthony proved last season that he knows how to battle, and we expect him to be a strong contender again this year. Luca has shown great potential in his development, and we’re looking forward to helping him take the next step in F4. Overall, we have a strong lineup and high expectations for 2026.”
Overall, Momentum Motorsports enters the 2026 season with a clear sense of purpose. Autiello provides a proven winning formula, while Day represents the team’s future trajectory.
Therefore, if both drivers deliver on their potential, Momentum Motorsports could emerge as a key contender across both championships. As the season approaches, the team appears well-positioned to translate its ambitions into on-track success.
