20 YEARS OF DRIVER DEVELOPMENT
Experience built from karting to single-seaters.
Ayrton Dumond brings more than 20 years of experience in professional driver coaching, from karting to single-seaters.
A specialist in single-seater coaching, he notably helped introduce Pierre Gasly to single-seater driving during his years as an instructor in France. He later expanded his work into karting and founded a driver academy in Morocco, developing young drivers through a structured approach combining driving technique, physical preparation, analysis and racecraft.
Today, this experience forms the foundation of the GKR Method and its philosophy: develop the driver before chasing the result.





FROM KARTING TO CARS
The next step starts before you leave karting.


GKR Academy prepares drivers for the transition beyond karting, with access to testing, coaching and development opportunities in single-seaters and GT racing through our European network.
The right car. The right time. The right path.
