The West Australian is the twelfth driver to be confirmed for the rebranded 2022 series, racing for reigning champions JHR Developments.

"A lot of hard thinking has gone into this," said Lisle.

"It's been a lot of investigating and working out what the best championship would be for me."

"We think that the British series is going to be the best option, JHR is a great team, and we believe they can offer us a really good package."

Lisle was confined to karting in previous years as the only option for competitive motorsport behind the closed border of Western Australia.

"It's been a pretty big step from karting last year."

"We couldn’t do any big kart races because of all the restrictions back in Australia as we were pretty much stuck there the whole time through lockdown, being restricted to Western Australia, so it's been quite a big step into British culture."

"We're learning a lot with the car every time we go out."

"It's almost like it will be a different car by the time we get to race one."

Lisle completed laps in the previous Myglae chassis before moving to the new equipment introduced to the championship for 2022.

"It's definitely quite a large step forward from the Mygale chassis to the new Tatuus this year and the new tyres have been performing well too."

"The ultimate goal would be to win the championship, as with any driver here, but we’ll just take it as it comes and give the best we can do."

The ten-event F4 British Championship certified by FIA gets underway 23-24 April at Donington Park.
