Driver Case Studies

Ewan Thomas didn’t arrive in motorsport through the usual pipeline. There was no early academy, no family legacy. He found racing later than most, but when he did, he moved quickly—bringing with him the kind of self-starting intensity that often marks drivers who’ve had to do more with less.

By the time he joined Kokoro, Ewan had already shown promise—but it was raw. Emotional. Inconsistent. What followed was a reset: a shift in mentality, approach, and professionalism. The tools changed. So did the results.

Chloe Chong entered the sport early, stepped away, came back, and carved her own path—often with less, but always extracting more. Now a podium threat in F1 Academy, she’s part of a new generation. Chloe joined Kokoro as a raw talent—curious, capable, and unstructured. What followed was a journey of intentional growth across every domain: physical, mental, tactical, and personal.

Zak O’Sullivan has been working with Kokoro founder Kieren Clark since the age of 11. Over the last decade, his progression through the ranks—from British karting to Formula 2 wins, to the edge of Formula 1—has been defined by consistency, clarity, and a refusal to overplay the moment.
