XAVIERHENDERSON

A nod to Senna.
A story of his own.

IN MYBLOOD.

Xavier Henderson competes in Formula racing, taking on circuits across Australia from his home in Perth.

From karting, he progressed through WA Formula Ford to national competition. In his first national season, he finished second outright at Sydney Motorsport Park and set a Formula Ford lap record at Queensland Raceway.

His connection to motorsport goes back much further. He grew up watching his dad win 12 consecutive formula car championships and was riding a trials bike himself by five.

SO FAR.
