Former racing driver Max Fewtrell is reflecting on his exit from professional motorsport six years after stepping away during the 2020 Formula 3 season. After spending most of his childhood preparing for a career in Formula 1, Fewtrell struggled to adapt to life without the structure of a racing calendar. He now maintains a connection to the sport through his work with the gaming and lifestyle brand Quadrant, which he co-founded alongside 2025 Formula 1 World Champion Lando Norris. The two drivers were long-time teammates in karting and junior racing categories before their career paths diverged. While Fewtrell finds competitive outlets through golf, padel, and gaming, he admits he still experiences difficulty replicating the specific intensity of sitting on a race grid. He will appear at an F1 Arcade event in London ahead of the Italian Grand Prix.
