Early life

[edit]

Scoular was born on 23 November 2007 in New Zealand. His father, Stuart Scoular, is a former rally driver who had his right leg amputated below the knee following a crash in the 2012 Targa Rally.[1] Stuart credited Tony Quinn with saving his life, who later funded Scoular's 2025 campaign in Formula Regional Oceania.[1] Scoular holds dual New Zealand and Australian nationality and is based in the United Arab Emirates.[2]

Racing career

[edit]

Karting (2017–2023)

[edit]

Scoular competed in karting both in the UAE, and in Europe. A result of note in his karting career was finishing in 3rd place in the 2023 IAME Series UAE, in the X30 Senior category.[3]

Formula 4 (2023–2024)

[edit]

2023: Junior formulae debut

[edit]

Scoular made his F4 debut at the F4 UAE Trophy Round, which was on the support bill for the Formula One World Championship race held at Yas Marina Circuit. He finished twelfth in both races.[4]

2024: Rookie season

[edit]

Scoular was announced to be competing in the full 2024 Formula 4 UAE season, driving for the Yas Heat Racing Academy team.[5] Scoular had a strong rookie season racing alongside more experienced drivers from all around the world, and he managed to score a best result of fifth, finishing 17th in the drivers' standings.[6] He then continued to the 2024 F4 British Championship with Emirati team Xcel Motorsport.[7] He had a tough opening weekend, failing to score any points, however he recovered the following weekend with a podium in the reverse-grid race at Brands Hatch, after Leo Robinson's disqualification.[8] He then failed to score points until the fourth round at Thruxton, where he finished sixth in the third race of the round.[9] He secured five more points finishes over the course of the season, including a fifth-placed finish at Silverstone.[10] He finished 15th in the standings, scoring 52 points over the championship's thirty races.[11]

Formula Regional (2025–2026)

[edit]

2025: Runner-up in Oceania

[edit]

In late 2024, it was announced that Scoular would be making his Formula Regional debut, contesting the 2025 Formula Regional Oceania Championship with Kiwi outfit mtec Motorsport.[12] Scoular received financial support for the season by winning the 2024 Tony Quinn Foundation Shootout, which took place at Hampton Downs.[13] He finished seventh in the opening practice at Taupo.[14] Scoular then took a debut pole position for the opening race, ahead of Supercars Championship driver Will Brown.[15][16] He then converted it to a lights-to-flag victory in the first race.[17] He capped off the weekend with a third-placed finish in the third race of the weekend, as he stood third in the championship standings after the round.[18] During the second round at Hampton Downs, Scoular secured a podium during races one and three.[19] He won the reverse-grid race two at Manfeild after starting from pole.[20] During the next round at Teretonga Park, Scoular claimed a podium during race two, and managed to clinch the rookie championship for the season.[21]

Scoular then competed in the Eurocup-3 for Palou Motorsport.[22][23] He also competed in the final two rounds of the Eurocup-3 Spanish Winter Championship with the same team.[24] At Monza, Scoular did not finish during race one, and finished 22nd during race 2.[25] He has achieved a best result of 16th in the second race at Portimão.
