Lower formulas

In 2019 Colapinto signed with FARacing by Drivex for a full campaign in the F4 Spanish Championship. He took the title by winning all three races in the season finale[5] bringing his debut car racing season tally to eleven victories, 13 podiums and 14 pole positions.[6][7]

Drivex also ran Colapinto during the 2019 season at Spa and Catalunya.[9][10] In July 2020, Colapinto joined the championship[11] full-time with Dutch outfit MP Motorsport.[12]
Toyota Racing Series
[edit]In January 2020, Colapinto joined Kiwi Motorsport for the 2020 championship.[13] The season saw him claim a race win in Hampton Downs and further 7 podiums and end the championship third overall, clinching the rookie championship win.[14][15]

In October 2020, Colapinto joined MP Motorsport for the first day of post-season testing at Catalunya.[16][17] He did likewise the following year at Valencia, but ended up signing for Van Amersfoort Racing instead for the 2022 season, partnering Rafael Villagómez and Reece Ushijima.[18] The Argentinian started his F3 career with a pole position on his and his team's debut in the series at Sakhir.[19] He went on to win the Sprint Race at the following round in Imola, scoring his and VAR's maiden victory in the series.[20] Throughout the season Colapinto took three more podium finishes at the Spielberg, Budapest and Zandvoort rounds and a second Sprint Race win at the final round in Monza to finish ninth in the drivers' standings.[21][22]
2023

In September, Colapinto partook in the 2022 post-season test, again with MP Motorsport.[23] On January 9, 2023, he was announced as MP Motorsport's driver for the 2023 season.[24]
At the season-opening Sakhir round, Colapinto qualified 12th and consequently claimed pole position for the Sprint Race, where he crossed the line in second place behind Pepe Martí. He finished 10th in the Feature Race on Sunday, scoring one more point.
Colapinto went on to qualify 7th in Melbourne. He started the Sprint Race in sixth place and climbed up the order to claim his first victory of the season.[25] However, after post-race inspections found all three MP Motorsport cars to have infringed technical regulations, he was disqualified from the Sprint Race along with his teammates Jonny Edgar and Mari Boya.[26] He then crashed out of the Feature Race, departing Australia without points.
Since then, Colapinto went on to consistently score points on every round of the calendar, aside from the Spielberg Sprint Race where he finished 13th and the season-ending Monza Feature Race in which he retired with a suspension failure after contact in the first lap. He ended the season fourth in the Drivers' Championship, with two wins at the Silverstone and Monza Sprint Races and three podium finishes at Sakhir, Catalunya and Budapest.
Macau Grand Prix
[edit]Colapinto was set to part in the 2023 Macau Grand Prix with MP Motorsport.[27] However, he withdrew from the event last-minute due to a broken collarbone he sustained prior to the final F3 round, and was replaced by Dennis Hauger.[28]
FIA Formula 2
[edit]2023
[edit]In October 2023, Colapinto was announced to be replacing Jehan Daruvala, moving up to Formula 2 for the final race in Yas Marina and the full 2024 season with MP Motorsport.[29] Ahead of his F2 debut, Colapinto expressed that "it's going to be tough" yet he was "super excited".[30] He finished 19th in the sprint race, but retired from the feature race due to a sensor issue.[31]

Colapinto made his debut in a Formula One race weekend for the 2024 British Grand Prix, driving for Williams in the first practice session (FP1) in place of Logan Sargeant.[37] Ahead of his FP1 debut, Colapinto stated that it was a "historic moment" representing Argentina.[38]
