Shields is a highly decorated karting graduate who will race cars for the first time in 2022.

His karting exploits have taken him across the UK and into Europe, with major triumphs coming in 2018 by finishing third in the IAME Winter Cup X30 Junior category, before being crowned as the champion in the IAME Series Benelux in the same category a year later.

Shields has embarked on a major winter testing programme since the Autumn, gaining good knowledge of many of the UK circuits that GB3 will visit.
