Arvid Anand Olof Lindblad (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈǎrːvɪd anɑːnd ˈûːlɔf ˈlɪnːdˌblɑːd]; born 8 August 2007) is a British and Swedish racing driver who competes in the FIA Formula 2 Championship for Campos Racing as part of the Red Bull Junior Team.
Born and raised in Virginia Water, England, to a Swedish father and a mother of Indian heritage, Lindblad began competitive kart racing aged seven, winning several national and continental titles. A protégé of 2024–25 Formula E World Champion Oliver Rowland, Lindblad graduated to junior formulae aged 15, competing in Italian F4 from 2022 to 2023, and finishing third in the latter with Prema. After winning in Formula 4 at the 2023 Macau Grand Prix, Lindblad progressed to FIA Formula 3 in 2024, achieving several wins and placing fourth. He then won his first title at the Formula Regional Oceania Championship with M2 Competition. Lindblad graduated to FIA Formula 2 with Campos for the 2025 season, becoming the youngest winner in F2 history.
A member of the Red Bull Junior Team since 2021, Lindblad made his free practice debut in Formula One at the 2025 British Grand Prix.
Arvid Anand Olof Lindblad was born on 8 August 2007 in Virginia Water, Surrey, England. His father, Stefan Lindblad, is Swedish, while his mother, Anita Lindblad (née Ahuja), is of Indian heritage. He has a younger brother named Amil. Lindblad was raised in Virginia Water and educated at the Royal Grammar School in Guildford.
Lindblad was first involved in motorsport when he was given a motocross bike aged three.
Lindblad first started karting aged five at Daytona Sandown Park in Esher. He progressed to competitive kart racing in 2015. Aged nine, Lindblad was taken under the wing of Oliver Rowland. In 2020 he won the WSK Super Master Series in the OKJ class. Signing to the Red Bull Junior Team in 2021, he won the WSK Euro Series and the WSK Final Cup for OK karts. He moved to shifter karting in 2022. A nasty accident occurred during the Champions of the Future Winter Series kart race where he crashed out during qualifying heat due to contact and suffered a broken thumb and extensive tissue damage.
In 2022, Lindblad made his debut single-seater racing by joining Van Amersfoort Racing ahead of the fifth round of the Italian F4 Championship after testing outside of race weekends throughout the year. He was able to amass three points finishes with his best finish being seventh place, putting him 17th in the standings with 12 points.
Ahead of the season, Lindblad joined Hitech Grand Prix to compete in the Formula 4 UAE Championship. In race 3 of the opening round held at the Dubai Autodrome, Lindblad took his first Formula 4 win as he fended off Ferrari Driver Academy driver Tuukka Taponen from pole position. However, this proved a false dawn as Lindblad only scored 26 points in the following two rounds, which dropped him out of the hunt. Despite this, Lindblad notched up a podium during the season finale in Yas Marina, putting him fifth in the standings.
