Dan Ticktum

Daniel Ticktum (born 8 June 1999) is a British racing driver who competes in the 2019 Super Formula Championship for the factory Honda squad Team Mugen. A Red Bull Junior Team member, Ticktum arrived in Super Formula as one of the most controversial young drivers on the circuit, after serving a one-year ban for hitting another driver during his time in MSA Formula.

Background
Ticktum's career began at the age of eight, entering various karting classes until he finished as runner-up in the 2014 WSK Masters series. That lead to a test in a BRDC Formula 4 Championship car, before the Brit was signed to w:c:motorsport:MSA Formula for 2015. Ticktum duly impressed with a series of dominant performances early on during the season, only to throw all of that away with a moment of madness mid-season.

Bans and Bulls
Ticktum would earn himself a one year (with an additional year suspended) ban, after deliberately crashing into title rival Ricky Collard under safety car conditions. Miraculously, Ticktum would return to racing in 2016, taking a drive at the final round of the FIA Formula 3 European Championship. He subsequently obtained a place in the Red Bull Junior Team for 2017, which lead to a seat in the Eurocup Formula Renault that season.

After claiming seventh in the Eurocup Ticktum would use his Red Bull backing to move into the FIA Formula 3 European Championship in 2018, having rounded out 2017 with a victory at the Macau Grand Prix. Ticktum would again prove controversial in F3, suggesting that eventual Champion Mick Schumacher was getting better engines in the spec-series, having lost out to the German during the second half of the season. Regardless, Ticktum would round out 2018 with a second consecutive win in Macau, having finished as runner-up in F3.

Super Formula History
Ticktum would get his first taste of the Super Formula Championship in 2018, with Honda, a partner of Red Bull in Formula One offering him a seat. Ticktum subsequently made his debut at the Sportsland Sugo race, although he would retire mid-race. Ticktum also appeared at the following race in Fuji, finishing eleventh, before full-season driver Nirei Fukuzumi returned for the rest of the campaign.

Super Licence Search
For 2019 Ticktum was sent by the RBJT to race in Super Formula full time, requiring a handful of points to complete his F1 Super Licence. He was subsequently picked up by the factory Honda squad, Team Mugen, with Tomoki Nojiri selected as his teammate.
