WP:NMOTORSPORT This is an amateur driver, who was always in the last places of the standings of low-level championships. He can't be considered as professional by any measures. P.S. Also I suspect that here can be a conflict of interest, as when the article was created it was looked like act of self-promotion And the author haven't made any other edits, excluding this article.

 * Delete There are 5 sources provided - the two motorsport.com pages are not neutral (one is from VW and one is from his race team) and neither is the one from the team page. One is a blog and those are generally not reliable as they don't have editorial review.  So 4 of the 5 sources are knocked out right off the bat, so we don't have multiple (the 5th source is a local blurb about a paragraph, hardly significant coverage).  The WP:NMOTORSPORT requires not just a professional series, but that prize money be non-trivial compared to costs.  National/small regional Formula Renault 2.0 series would seem to be just that.  These are all below the World Series by Renault that is at least below Formula 1 and most likely GP2 Series (and even GP3 Series).  Most of the results I found in a google search are Manitoba-based "local kid does good" short articles.  Without showing more, a fourth or fifth tier racer with low results is a delete.
