Career

Karting

Beeton competed in the Australian Kart Championship from the 2020 season onwards, and his best result in the championship was 6th in the KA4 Junior category in 2022. [3]

Formula 4

2022

In late 2022, Beeton had the chance to impress the Ferrari Driver Academy, and win a place in the scouting world finals. He won the Asia Pacific and Oceania Selection Program alongside fellow Aussie Gianmarco Pradel, to make it to the world finals. [4] He lined up alongside Pradel and 4 other finalists in the finals, and was the youngest driver selected. [5]

2023

After showing his quality in the scouting world finals, he was announced to be driving in F4 UAE for Pinnacle VAR. [6] Beeton had a tough rookie year, and he only scored one points finish as he ended the campaign in 23rd. [7] Beeton then went to Europe and was signed by VAR for the full Italian F4 season. [8] Beeton went on to finish 23rd in the championship, scoring just two points in his debut season with a best result of 9th. [9] Beeton then ended the season back in Asia as he joined AGI Sport for the 2023 Formula 4 South East Asia Championship. [10] Beeton had an outstanding season, winning the title by a considerable margin. He scored 130 points and managed a total of 5 podiums from 9 races. [11]

2024

Beeton opted to continue his successful journey with AGI as the team entered the 2024 Formula 4 UAE Championship. [12] The combination had a largely successful season in the championship, scoring two podiums as Beeton finished 12th in the championship against vastly more experienced teams. [13] Beeton then contested the remaining two rounds of the Formula Winter Series, with his new team US Racing, who would also partner him for the Italian F4 and Euro 4 seasons. [14] Beeton had a very successful two round stint in FWS, scoring 52 points and standing on the podium three times in five races. [15]

In Italian F4, in a season largely dominated by Freddie Slater, Beeton experienced a slow start to the season, but scored his first podium at the final race in Imola. [16] This was followed by a first pole in the next round in Vallelunga, which he followed up with second place. [17] AFter six more second places, Beeton finally broke his duck with a maiden Italian F4 win during the final race in Barcelona. [18] With a double podium in the Monza finale, Beeton would be classified second in the standings, having score one win, two poles and ten podiums. [19] His Euro 4 campaign was less successful, as Beeton only yielded one podium in nine races, putting him eighth in the standings. [20]

Formula Regional

2025

Beeton is set to compete in the 2025 Formula Regional European Championship with Prema Racing, being partnered alongside his Italian F4 rival Freddie Slater. [21]
