Ayato raced karts mainly in Asia where he spent several years in the senior category. He won the Asian Karting Open Senior Championship (2019) and RMC Japan KZ Championship (2020), was runner-up in the IAME Asia Cup Seniors (2020) and claimed the RMC Japan KZ Class and RMC Japan Senior Championships last year.
Iwasaki, who attended his first karting event in Europe at the X30 Senior - IAME International Final in Le Mans in 2019, made his car racing debut in the Formula Regional Asian Championship at Yas Marina in January and has also contested two Japanese F4 Championship events this year.
He will join Elite’s GB3 regulars Tom Lebbon and John Bennett in Donington’s three races.
