Hitech Pulse-Eight has confirmed that Michael Shin will compete in this year's GB3 Championship with the reigning champion team, as he embarks on his second season in single-seaters. 

The South Korean made the transition from karts to Formula 4 last season, joining the F4 UAE Championship grid, which allowed him to gain valuable experience as he finished seventh in the Rookies’ standings. 

The 18-year-old then stepped up to a full-season campaign in British F4, claiming a race win in only his second outing alongside several top-five finishes and a fastest lap, placing him 11th in the points table. 

He also took part in the FIA Motorsport Games last November, and this year has competed in the Formula Regional Middle East Championship, taking a podium and several points-scoring finishes.
