Akshay Bohra

Akshay Arjun Bohra (born February 22, 2007) is an Indian and American racing driver who is set to compete in the Super Formula Lights for TOM'S.

A protégé of Jordan King, Bohra is a race winner in the Formula Regional European Championship and previously competed in the 2024 Italian F4 Championship, placing fourth overall. He is also the 2024 Euro 4 champion. He is the younger brother of Nikhil Bohra, who is also a racing driver.

Career Karting Bohra began competing in international karting in 2017, racing in the Mini ROK and 60 Mini categories. In 2018, he finished third at the ROK Cup International Final in the Mini ROK category.

In 2021, Bohra won the German Junior Kart Championship in OK Junior. During the season, he also finished fifth in the WSK series in the Junior category and competed in the FIA Karting European Championship and FIA Karting World Championship. That year, Bohra made his Formula 4 debut in the Italian F4 Championship with US Racing during the final round in Mugello.

2023

Bohra joined PHM Racing to race in the 2023 Formula 4 UAE Championship. Scoring three points finishes that season, with the highest being a seventh place, he was ranked 21st in the standings with eleven points.

Bohra's main campaign lied in the Italian F4 Championship with US Racing. Scoring consistently through the first half of the season, his first podium came during the final race in Monza. Scoring another third-placed podium in Mugello, Bohra eventually placed eighth in the standings with 113 points. In the Euro 4 Championship, Bohra scored a double podium in Mugello, but had his big break by winning his first F4 race in Barcelona after original winner James Wharton was penalised. This allowed him to finish third in the overall standings.

Bohra also took part in the F4 Indian Championship that year, placing third in the standings. He also made a cameo appearance in the F4 Spanish Championship with MP Motorsport, driving for them during the season finale in Barcelona.

2024

During pre-season, Bohra took part in the Formula Winter Series, finishing 11th in the overall standings.

Bohra's main campaign again lied in the Italian F4 Championship where he continued to drive for US Racing. He had a stronger start to the season, scoring three podiums in the opening two rounds, before a first pole came for the first race in Mugello. His first and only win came in the first race in Paul Ricard, leading a lights-to-flag victory. Scoring two more third-place podiums after that, Bohra finished fourth in the standings, having amassed one win and eight total podiums.

In the Euro 4 Championship, Bohra began the campaign with a double victory in Mugello. A difficult qualifying came at the Red Bull Ring where he was forced to make comebacks, rewarded with two fourth-place finishes. Despite two runner-up finishes during the last round in Monza, standings leader Freddie Slater experienced a troubling weekend, allowing Bohra to overhaul him and clinch the Euro 4 title.

Formula Regional

Bohra competed in the Formula Regional Middle East Championship with R-ace GP. For his main campaign, Bohra remained with R-ace GP to compete in the Formula Regional European Championship.

Super Formula Lights Bohra switched to Super Formula Lights for the 2026 season, joining TOM'S.
