British
Olli Caldwell (born 11 June 2002) is a British racing driver who climbed the single-seater ladder through FIA Formula 3 and FIA Formula 2 before turning to sportscars.
Junior career
Caldwell built a strong karting and Formula 4 record, winning races in both Italian F4 and ADAC F4, and went on to take victories in the Formula Regional European Championship. He also won the GT4 class of the 2018 Gulf 12 Hours, an early sign of the endurance pace he would later lean on.
Formula 3
Caldwell stepped up to FIA Formula 3 in 2020 with Trident, finishing eighth in the drivers' standings as a rookie. For 2021 he moved to championship powerhouse PREMA Racing. He started strongly, taking a win and four podiums across the opening four rounds and running as high as third in the standings, but his form tailed off in the second half of the year and he slipped back to eighth overall.
Formula 2
In November 2021 Caldwell made his FIA Formula 2 debut with Campos Racing, partnering Ralph Boschung for the final two rounds of the season. He then contested a full 2022 campaign with Campos, backed by the Alpine Academy, while supporting the Alpine F1 team with simulator work for Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon. The season proved tough and he did not establish himself as a regular front-runner.
After F2/F3
Caldwell transitioned to endurance racing, competing in the LMP2 class of the European Le Mans Series, a natural home for his earlier GT and sportscar pace.
