Maximilian Bradley Fewtrell (born 29 July 1999) is a British former racing driver and current content creator.[1] He was the 2016 British F4 champion. He competed in the 2020 FIA Formula 3 Championship for Hitech Grand Prix alongside Kiwi Liam Lawson and Norwegian Dennis Hauger, having driven for ART Grand Prix in the 2019 season.
Fewtrell was born in Birmingham. At a young age, he moved to Malaysia first, then Singapore for 9 years. He also has an older brother, Sam, and a younger brother, Theo. Max began karting in 2009 at the age of ten after watching the Singapore Grand Prix. Fewtrell karted in Singapore but competed mainly in Malaysia.[2] He went on to take major karting titles in 2013 and 2014.
In 2015, Fewtrell graduated to single-seaters, partaking in the MRF Challenge where he finished eleventh.
The following year, Fewtrell joined Carlin for a campaign in British F4.[3] He took three victories and claimed the championship in the final race at Brands Hatch.[4]
In December 2016, Fewtrell was named as part of Tech 1 Racing's driver line-up for the 2017 seasons of Formula Renault 2.0.[5] He won a race at the Red Bull Ring on his way to the rookies' title, and came sixth in the drivers' championship.[6] [7]
The following year, Fewtrell switched to reigning team champions R-ace GP.[8] He achieved six poles and six wins, including a double victory across a two race weekend at Hockenheim, making him the first driver to do so since Nyck de Vries. Fewtrell claimed the championship title in the season finale after a season-long battle with fellow Renault junior Christian Lundgaard.[9] [10]
After winning the 2018 Formula Renault Eurocup, Fewtrell partook in the post-season test with ART Grand Prix.[11]
In January 2019 Fewtrell joined the championship with ART Grand Prix, alongside Christian Lundgaard and David Beckmann.[12] He finished on the podium twice, first in Austria and then again at the Hungaroring, both being second-place finishes. Fewtrell concluded his debut season in 10th place, after scoring 57 points.
In February 2017, Fewtrell was named as part of the Renault Sport Academy's 2017 line-up.[13] Following a period of ill mental health, Fewtrell retired from professional racing.[14]
Fewtrell has gained over 150,000 followers on the streaming platform Twitch, where he plays FPS games such as Escape from Tarkov and Call of Duty or races in iRacing on a simulator alongside fellow streamers and occasionally his friend Lando Norris, who currently races in Formula One. He took part in Norris' Twitch Rivals Charity Tournament in 2021.[15]
He launched his own merchandise line called Fewtrell Fits in December 2020. The line has since been discontinued.
After appearing in some earlier content, on 13 June 2021 Fewtrell was announced as a new ambassador and core member for Norris' entertainment, athlete and apparel brand, Team Quadrant.[16] He is frequently featured on Team Quadrant's YouTube videos and the team's other social media platforms, as well as merchandise campaigns.
During the Goodwood Festival Of Speed in 2022, Fewtrell took part in two sessions of the hill climb with Veloce Racing's Extreme E car alongside three-time W Series champion Jamie Chadwick.[17]
