Career

Formula BMW

Despite beginning his karting career in 2001, 2007 saw his debut in the Formula BMW ADAC championship with ADAC Berlin-Brandenburg. Mirocha finished 8th in the championship and third in the Rookie Cup [2] with one podium at EuroSpeedway Lausitz. [3]

In 2008, Mirocha stepped up to the ATS Formel 3 Cup with Josef Kaufmann Racing. He finished sixth in the standings after taking four podium places. Mirocha moved to HBR Motorsport and the Formula 3 Euro Series in 2009 [4] but left the series pointless, after failing to start either race at the Zandvoort round.

Formula Renault

Mirocha competed in seven of the twenty races that comprised the 2010 Formula Renault 2.0 NEC season for the SL Formula Racing team, winning the final race of the season at the Nürburgring. He finished ninth in the championship, the third best-placed driver who did not contest all the rounds of the championship.

GP2 Series

Mirocha moved up to the GP2 Series with the Ocean Racing Technology team for 2011, driving alongside Johnny Cecotto Jr. He did not start either race at Silverstone after injuring his left shoulder. [5] After fourteen races, he was replaced by Brendon Hartley. [6] Despite this, he finished the season 22nd in the drivers' championship, the highest-placed of those not to score any points.

FIA Formula 2

In 2012 Mirocha competed in FIA Formula 2. [7] He had a strong rookie season and took his maiden Formula 2 victory at Brands Hatch. [8]
