    Biography

    Ming began his career aged 6, when his father Stanley – a former motorcycle racer – bought him a go-kart for his birthday.[1] Having competed in karting across the Caribbean, he relocated to Florida

    ] in 2015 to pursue a career in cars. He made his début in U.S. F1600, and simultaneously began testing in Formula 4 with a view to contesting the Mexican championship – completing an exhibition at the South Dakota Circuit in Guyana in an effort to garner local sponsorship.[2] [3] Ming won the NACAM F4 Championship on his second attempt in a campaign that saw him win a race supporting the 2016 Mexican Grand Prix.[4] [5] Following this, Ming secured a promotion to the U.S. F2000 National Championship on the Road to Indy ladder, but scored only 6 podiums in 28 races and fell back to regional racing after a handful of outings in the Toyota Racing Series in New Zealand.[6] [7]

    Ming was also a national Junior Chess Champion.[8]
