Saudi Arabian driver Faris Organji has reflected positively on his debut GB4 Championship campaign after joining Scorpio Motorsport for the final four rounds of the 2026 season. Despite limited testing and experience, the 18-year-old made steady progress throughout his time in the championship, securing a best finish of 16th at Brands Hatch.
Organji made the transition to British motorsport following his single-seater debut in the 2025 Saudi Arabian F4 Championship. Having joined Scorpio Motorsport midway through the season, he faced the challenge of adapting to the Tatuus MSV GB4-025 while competing against drivers with considerably more experience in the category.
Organji reflects on challenges of mid-season GB4 debut
Organji acknowledged that joining the championship midway through the season presented a significant challenge, particularly given his limited preparation compared to the rest of the field.
“I joined mid-season which obviously isn’t super ideal with little to no testing,” said Organji. “It was a big gap, and I had to adapt super quick to try and catch up.”
Nevertheless, the Saudi Arabian driver felt encouraged by his progress across the four weekends. Despite the experience gap, he adapted to the car and began scoring points as he became more familiar with the championship.
“We managed to be straight on the pace,” he said. “I proved that, despite having less seat time, I could be adaptable as a driver and score some valuable points. Overall, I’m super positive about my four weekends in GB4.”
Although Organji acknowledged that additional testing would have helped him, he remained satisfied with how quickly he improved.
Having “improved in a very short span”, Organji reflected on his approach to the challenges he encountered.
“I played with the card I was dealt and didn’t complain,” he said.
Brands Hatch provides highlight of rookie campaign
Organji identified the season finale at Brands Hatch as the highlight of his debut campaign. Describing the Kent circuit as “a rollercoaster circuit”, the Scorpio Motorsport driver enjoyed the challenge of its demanding layout as he continued building confidence behind the wheel.
The weekend also produced his strongest result of the season. During Race 2 at Brands Hatch, Organji recovered from 24th on the grid to finish 16th, gaining eight positions.
Reflecting on the experience, Organji highlighted the progress he had made in understanding the car.
“I enjoyed every moment there,” he recalled. “I started to get comfortable with the car, [began] understanding it and scored my best finish.”
However, his opening GB4 weekend proved considerably more difficult. Despite demonstrating encouraging pace during official testing, Organji struggled to translate that performance into competitive results as he adapted to the larger field and unfamiliar machinery.
“[During the] first weekend in GB4, we managed to do really well in the official testing but then inexperience caught up to me in qualifying and race one,” he reflected. “It was just a tough weekend overall mentally, but it’s the weekend where I learned the most from.”
Organji targets full season of racing in 2027
Having completed his first four GB4 weekends, Organji will now turn his attention towards the next stage of his single-seater career. Although he has yet to confirm his plans for 2027, the Saudi Arabian driver hopes to secure his first full racing season.
His debut campaign provided experience across several British circuits, while his progress at Brands Hatch demonstrated the improvements he made as he became more comfortable with the car.
Organji remains interested in returning to the GB4 grid as he looks to build on the foundation established during 2026.
“I’m still deciding my plans but am aiming for my first full year of racing,” he said. “Hopefully, I will see you on the GB4 grid.”
