:o A RACING FAN!!! many f1 driver started young. I LOVE F1!!!
Do not give up. Start to eat right and healthy. Find a track with go karts and start riding in them and push yourself and the kart to limit. After you get comfortable find a racing team for go karting and give it your all. Find racing video's and learn how to manage a car and tires and learn and practice the methods. Now money will have to spent but racing is unfortunately a money pit. DO NOT give up! start with karting and the hardest part is getting a sponsorship deal with a GP3/F3 team. You have to prove yourself. You also have to know a little about mechanics. BUT start with karting, go to your nearest go karting place and practice. watch video's on how to be fast and that type of stuff, buy safety gear and do not cheap out on it.
You have lots to learn but you have to work your butt of and you will be good. work harder and longer than anyone out there. Keep driving and drive hard, don't settle keep breaking your lap records, etc... etc... Good luck, you can still do it. If you live in England or Europe, you have a greater chance.
You would need to immediately get into karting, and instantly dominate with natural skills at your age, as the newer drivers are 18-20, and are pretty much being outperformed by the time they are 25-28, with rare exceptions. Still, anything is possible! Especially if money is not an obstacle.
Are there any Go-Karting venues near where you live? You need to go daily if you want to become really good. You have a lot of catching up to do. Lewis Hamilton was 8 when be started. Never give up on a dream though. If you don't try then it will certainly never happen.
