Career
Karting (2012–2025)
Pasiewicz had his first taste of karting in 2012, at the GoKart Arena in his home town of Łódź.[1] After making his competitive debut two years later,[2] Pasiewicz won the national Micro Max title in 2015,[3] before finishing runner-up the following year.[4]
Moving up to mini karts in 2017, Pasiewicz won the Polish junior and Italian mini Rok titles,[5][6] earning him an invitation to the Rok Cup International Final, in which he finished eighth.[7] In 2018, Pasiewicz began primarily racing in international races,[8] finishing second to Kimi Antonelli in the South Garda Winter Cup,[9] as well as taking fourth in the WSK Champions Cup and WSK Super Master Series.[10][11]
Pasiewicz then spent two years in junior karts,[12] most notably finishing runner-up in the WSK Super Master Series and third in the WSK Open Cup in 2020.[13][14] In 2021, Pasiewicz began racing in senior karts, finishing tenth in the WSK Super Master Series and fifth in the end-of-year WSK Final Cup.[15][16] During 2022, Pasiewicz began competing in shifter karts, most notably winning the Rok Cup Superfinal and finishing third in the Andrea Margutti Trophy in 2025.[17][18] During his time in shifter karts, Pasiewicz also briefly returned to direct-drive karts, most notably winning the 2024 WSK Open Series in OK-N.[19]
USF Juniors (2026)
In 2026, Pasiewicz made his single-seater debut for Olivia Racing in the YACademy Winter Series, in which he scored a podium to secure runner-up honours.[20] Continuing with the team to race in USF Juniors,[21] Pasiewicz began the season by finishing second in all three races at the season-opening Homestead–Miami round.[22] After a quiet round in South Carolina, Pasiewicz won all three races at Mosport in dominant fashion to take the points lead.[23] Pasiewicz then took both poles at Mid-Ohio and finished second in race one,[24] before taking his fourth win at Lime Rock to extend his points lead.[25] At the Road America finale, Pasiewicz began the weekend by finishing second in race one to become USF Juniors' first European champion two races early,[26] before winning said races and taking maximum points in both to round out his title-winning season.[27]
USF2000 (2026)
During 2026, Pasiewicz and Olivia Racing made their USF2000 debut at Portland.[28]
