Career
Karting (2016–2025)
Aksoy began karting competitively at the age of five,[1] competing until 2025.[2] Starting off by racing in Turkey and the UAE,[3] Aksoy made his debut in European karting in 2018 by racing in Rotax Max Challenge Central Europe,[4] in which he scored a win at the Speedworld Circuit in Austria,[5] becoming the first Turkish driver to win in the series.[6] The same year, Aksoy won the Turkish Winter Cup in the Mini class and finished runner-up in the main championship.[7]
Moving to international races for 2019, Aksoy joined Baby Race Driver Academy to race in mini karts for the following three years,[8] taking a best result of sixth in the 2021 Andrea Margutti Trophy with the team.[9] Stepping up to junior karting for 2022, Aksoy joined Tony Kart Racing Team as a factory driver for the next two seasons.[10][11] Racing in the OK-J class, Aksoy most notably finished runner-up in the 2023 Trofeo Delle Industrie and represented Turkey in the 2022 FIA Motorsport Games Karting Sprint Junior discipline.[12][13]
In 2024, Aksoy made the jump to senior karting, a year in which he drove for Parolin Motorsport and Fusion Motorsport,[14][15] scoring a best result of eighth in the WSK Euro Series' standings.[16] Remaining in the OK class for 2025, Aksoy switched Prema Racing for most of the year,[17] before briefly returning to Fusion Motorsport for the WSK Euro Series and finishing fourth in points.[18]
Formula 4 (2025–)
After testing Formula 4 machinery with Prema Racing during 2025,[19] Aksoy joined Prema-operated Mumbai Falcons Racing Limited to race in Formula Trophy.[20] Despite winning on debut at Dubai,[21] Aksoy was stripped of his race one win after jumping the start, but bounced back to win race three to exit the round second in points.[22] After finishing third and eighth in the following round at Abu Dhabi,[23] Aksoy finished second in race one and won the season finale at the same venue to secure the Formula Trophy title by 27 points over Niccolò Maccagnani.[24]
In 2026, Aksoy will remain with Prema Racing to compete in the Italian F4 and E4 Championships.[25]
