Mason’s Eric Wisniewski Closes Rookie Season in Top Level of American Formula Racing This Weekend

Michigan State freshman from Mason, backed by RE/MAX Commercial Group, wraps first Formula Regional Americas season at Barber Motorsports Park, October 17–18

MASON, Mich. (October 12, 2026) — 18-year-old Mason native and Michigan State University freshman Eric Wisniewski will finish his first season in the Formula Regional Americas Championship (FR Americas), the top level of Racing America’s Formula Ladder, this weekend at Barber Motorsports Park in Leeds, Alabama.

Wisniewski drives the No. 25 RE/MAX Commercial Ligier JS F3 for Hillenburg Motorsports, backed by primary sponsor RE/MAX Commercial Group of East Lansing. FR Americas is an open-wheel series in which drivers race single-seat formula cars on road courses across North America.

Wisniewski scored points in both races at VIRginia International Raceway last month, finishing seventh and sixth, and sits 11th in the championship standings in his rookie year. He won the inaugural Ligier Junior Formula Championship driver title at age 14 and earned a silver medal at the 2025 SCCA National Championship Runoffs.

“This first year in FR Americas has been a steep learning curve, and scoring points in both races at VIR showed me how far we’ve come,” said Wisniewski. “I’m grateful to RE/MAX Commercial Group and everyone at Hillenburg Motorsports, and I want to finish the season strong at Barber.”

Wisniewski’s Hillenburg Motorsports teammate, Whitney Strickland, enters the finale as the points leader in the FR Americas Masters Cup class. The two finale races are Saturday, October 17, and Sunday, October 18. Live timing and scoring will be available on the Race Monitor app. Fans can follow Wisniewski on Instagram at @eric_wisniewski25 and at EricWisniewski.com.
