Weak delete while I found these references - [1], [2], [3]. The majority of the articles are just mentions of him and not any real significant coverage, so fails WP:GNG. Also, the article's creator is "Patterson2929" is a little fishy and maybe COI. LADY LOTUS • TALK 13:45, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Front running Australian Formula 3 driver - recognised by the FIA as a contributing series to Superlicence qualification[4]. A series previously established as being notable. Some other coverage[5]. --Falcadore (talk) 17:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Doesn't have the coverage required to meet WP:GNG. All of the sources either are passing mentions (routine sports reporting) or don't mention him at all.204.126.132.231 (talk) 21:26, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

204.126.132.231 has the right of it. None of the sources presented so far represent the kind of significant coverage we usually look for, and none have any biographical coverage at all. Even the article creator characterizes the subject (himself, to all appearances) as an "emerging athlete trying to raise profile for potential international teams and sponsors". I wish him well, but Wikipedia is not the place to do that. Delete. —Cryptic 01:22, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
