Emil Bernstorff is a young Anglo-Danish racing driver.
Emil started karting at Brooklands kart track at the age of 8 and his first competitive race was at the age of 10 at the nearby Sandown Park kart circuit in Esher, Surrey. A successful karting career followed where he secured two vice championships at national level before graduating to formula cars in 2010 competing in the MSA British Formula Ford Championship.
Emil quickly became one of the fastest formula Ford drivers setting no less than 6 fastest laps of which 2 were lap records and securing 3 podiums in the process, finishing an impressive 7th overall in this his rookie season.
He continued his impressive career as a rookie with a rookie team nearly winning the ADAC Formula Masters championship in 2011, only missing out on the title as his car stopped with an electrical failure 4 minutes from the checkered flag at the last race of the season.
A late opportunity arose to race with ma-con in the F3 Euroseries in 2012 and despite no pre-season testing Emil quickly learned to master the F3 car and secured 3 podium points finishes in his impressive rookie campaign.
In preparation for the 2013 F3 campaign Emil participated in and dominated the Formula Middle East Series, securing 4 Poles plus 6 wins & 6 fastest laps on his way to the championship title. The 2013 season continued on a high with 6 wins in the German F3 Championship and a Podium in the prestigious F3 Masters championship at Zandvoort.
Throughout the 2014 & 2015 seasons Emil was a serious contender for the GP3 Series title securing 3 race wins and 9 more podiums.

Undeterred Emil Bernstorff drove a battling race passing the 2 championship leaders making an outstanding round […]
The Sochi weekend threw up some unexpected challenges with rain and darkness for the practice session, qualifying on a drying track on Saturday morning followed by the cancellation of the afternoon race.

The goal of the GP3 Series is to give young upcoming drivers a chance to develop their driving skills and jump to the next step: GP2 and then Formula 1.
The Series has been designed to make it the perfect driver training ground for GP2 and Formula One. All GP3 events follow the Formula One Calendar giving drivers firsthand experience of racing in the Grand Prix environment and gaining that all important F1 exposure.
“We will make sure that this Series is as successful as GP2 in revealing young drivers able to jump to the next step.”
Bruno Michel, GP3 Series CEO
