Konsta Lappalainen (born 11 August 2001) is a Finnish racing driver.[1] He is currently driving in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup for Emil Frey Racing.

Career

Karting

Born and raised in Espoo, Lappalainen started his karting career in 2012. His best result was winning the Finnish Karting Championship in the OK class in 2016.

Lower formulae

In 2016 Lappalainen made his single-seater racing debut with part-time appearances in the F4 Spanish Championship. He finished all races in the top ten, however due to him being a guest driver Lappalainen didn't score any points.[2]

The next year the Finn continued racing in Spain, whilst also driving in SMP F4. He struggled in both series however, finishing 15th and 13th in the respective championships.

In 2018, Lappalainen continued in the SMP F4 Championship. He won seven races and scored 15 podiums, winning the championship 41 points ahead of Michael Belov.[3]

Formula Regional European Championship

In 2019 KIC Motorsport announced that Lappalainen would drive for them in the inaugural season of the Formula Regional European Championship alongside Isac Blomqvist.[4] He finished third at the Red Bull Ring, the only podium of his season, and ended the season in 11th in the standings.

Lappalainen would continue driving for KIC in 2020.[5] His season would be much more successful, with the Finn scoring two podiums and finishing sixth in the drivers' championship, although Lappalainen was beaten by his teammate Patrik Pasma.
