We are very pleased to begin 2025 with the news that talented Swedish driver Filip Engdahl has joined us as a fully managed athlete.

An FIA silver grade driver, Filip is from the town of Eslöv near Malmö, Sweden and has spent the last few years racing in his home country; accumulating seven wins and 26 podiums across both the GT4 Scandinavia and V8 Thundercars series.
Our first contact with Filip was in 2022 during his debut V8 Thundercars season. As well as an obvious talent on track, we were impressed with his professional attitude, eloquence in both Swedish and English, and ambition to progress in the sport.

"I'm very excited to work with 130R Performance, it's just what my racing career needs to bring it to the next level and chase my goals of being a professional racing driver. I'm looking forward to taking the step to competing outside of Sweden and against other nationalities."
The first non-UK based driver on our roster, we've already been working with Filip throughout 2024 both remotely and in person as we put commercial and performance planning in place for him to make a planned career progression to GT4 endurance racing this year. We also have a couple of other special race events in the planning phase so watch this space...

Check back soon both here and on our respective social media feeds for some content shot on his home turf to properly get to know Filip!
