The late rally driver Ken Block's daughter Lia Block continues in her father's footsteps when she sits down in a Formula 4 racer.
Lia Block is not just associated with the Formula 1 team Williams F1's academy. The just 17-year-old American, who is the daughter of the late rally star Ken Block, has been given a seat in Spanish Formula 4.
This is confirmed by the GRS Team, which earlier this year gave Lia Block her debut in the Formula 4 series, in a press release .
– Lia has improved impressively over the winter season, so we can't wait to welcome her back in this new part of her career, writes the GRS Team.
For the time being, the 17-year-old American will score 2 lobs in F4. And in fact, she already has a short front lobe. From a starting position of number 35, she moved up to 28th place.

Above all, however, she is looking forward to getting even more time in a Formula car, especially in F4, which she believes is a very competitive lob series.
– I would like to have as much time as possible in F4 this year, and being able to drive in such a competitive series is the perfect place to gain more experience, she says.
Lia Block is in many ways short on the trail her father, Ken Block, so tragically left far too soon when the famous American died in an accident on January 2, 2023. Read more about it here .
