Ádám Hideg (born on 9 January 2008) is a Hungarian racing driver, runner-up in the OK Junior category of the 2022 FIA Karting World Championship.[1][2]

Karting

edit

He comes from a rallying family, his grandfather is a two-time Hungarian rally champion, and his father, Krisztián Hideg, is a three-time Croatian rally champion.[3]

Hideg drove a kart for the first time in Kaposvár when he was 4-5 years old and continued to develop his skills on a local karting track from the age of 7. Not much later he started competitive karting. His first test took place in Kecskemét, and at first he participated in championships in Hungary and neighboring countries, including the Moravian Cup.

In 2018, he competed for a Hungarian team in Italy in the Mini60 category in the prestigious WSK series, and from 2019 he became a permanent participant in the field with Lennox Racing, BabyRace and KidiX teams, where he was even able to stand on the podium.

He entered the junior category in 2021, at first with KidiX, then from 2022 with the DPK Racing team linked to Fernando Alonso, before becoming a factory driver for Sodi Kart.[4] In addition to WSK, he also competed in the Champions of the Future, the FIA Karting European Championship and the FIA Karting World Championship, and was selected as a member of the Hungarian Motorsport Academy.[5]

With his 2nd place in the OK Junior category at the 2022 FIA Karting World Championship, he achieved a unique success in the history of Hungarian karting.[6][7]

After the World Championship, at the end of 2022 and at the beginning of 2023 he competed in the adult OK category, before starting his preparations for his Formula 4 career.

In the second half of 2023 he started testing at Monlau Motorsport, the partner team of Van Amersfoort Racing, at the circuits of the Spanish Formula 4 championship, with the aim of choosing the team where he will compete from 2024.

In January 2024 Jenzer Motorsport announced that Hideg will continue his career at the swiss team and will compete in Formula Winter Series and the Italian F4 Championship.[8]
