Born and raised in the Gold Coast, Beeton was the 2023 Formula 4 South East Asia champion and the 2024 Italian F4 vice-champion. He then moved up to Formula Regional Europe for 2025 with Prema, but a difficult season saw him switch stateside to Indy NXT in 2026.
Career
Karting
Beeton competed in the Australian Kart Championship from the 2020 season onwards, and his best result in the championship was 6th in the KA4 Junior category in 2022.[1]
Formula 4
2022
In late 2022, Beeton had the chance to impress the Ferrari Driver Academy, and win a place in the scouting world finals. He won the Asia Pacific and Oceania Selection Program alongside fellow Aussie Gianmarco Pradel, to make it to the world finals.[2] He lined up alongside Pradel and four other finalists in the finals, and was the youngest driver selected.[3]

After showing his quality in the scouting world finals, Beeton was announced to be driving in F4 UAE for Pinnacle VAR.[4] Beeton had a tough rookie year, and he only scored one points finish as he ended the campaign in 23rd.[5] Beeton then went to Europe and was signed by VAR for the full Italian F4 season.[6] Beeton went on to finish 23rd in the championship, scoring just two points in his debut season with a best result of ninth.[7] Beeton then ended the season back in Asia as he joined AGI Sport for the 2023 Formula 4 South East Asia Championship.[8] Beeton had an outstanding season, winning the title by a considerable margin. He scored 130 points and managed a total of five podiums from nine races.[9]
2024
Beeton opted to continue his successful journey with AGI as the team entered the 2024 Formula 4 UAE Championship.[10] The combination had a largely successful season in the championship, scoring two podiums as Beeton finished 12th in the championship against vastly more experienced teams.[11] Beeton then contested the remaining two rounds of the Formula Winter Series, with his new team US Racing, who would also partner him for the Italian F4 and Euro 4 seasons.[12] Beeton had a very successful two round stint in FWS, scoring 52 points and standing on the podium three times in five races.[13]
In Italian F4, in a season largely dominated by Freddie Slater, Beeton experienced a slow start to the season, but scored his first podium at the final race in Imola.[14] This was followed by a first pole in the next round in Vallelunga, which he followed up with second place.[15] After six more second places, Beeton finally broke his duck with a maiden Italian F4 win during the final race in Barcelona.[16] With a double podium in the Monza finale, Beeton would be classified second in the standings, having scored one win, two poles and ten podiums.[17] His Euro 4 campaign was less successful, as Beeton only yielded one podium in nine races, putting him eighth in the standings.[18]
Formula Regional
2025
In preparation for a full Formula Regional campaign, Beeton contested in the Formula Regional Middle East Championship for Mumbai Falcons.[19]
Beeton then raced in the Formula Regional European Championship with Prema Racing, being partnered alongside his Italian F4 rivals Freddie Slater and Rashid Al Dhaheri.[20]
Indy NXT
In October 2025, Beeton partook in an Indy NXT test with HMD Motorsports at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.[21]
2026
Shortly after the test, Beeton was signed by HMD Motorsports to compete for them during the full 2026 Indy NXT season.[22]
