Jazeman Firhan bin Jaafar (born 13 November 1992) is a Malaysian racing driver.

Career

Karting

Jazeman started his career at a tender age of 6 in Shah Alam, Malaysia. A hobby which turned to a full time career, Jazeman has won a total Eleven Karting Championships in Malaysia, Asia and also won the Belgian Open Kart Championship Race in Mariembourg.

Formula Renault

In 2006, Jazeman competed in Asian Formula Renault 2.0 for the Macanese outfit Asia Racing Team at a young age of 13. He was the youngest ever driver to be granted with an International C Licence from the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA). He finished third in the championship, behind champion Pekka Saarinen, taking four podiums during the season.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

Formula BMW

In 2007, Jazeman competed in Formula BMW Asia. Jazeman was again given a special allowance to gain an International C License from the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) to compete in the series when he was fourteen. Jazeman won the championship but not before the following February due to the appeal of a technical infringement.

After Round 22, and following the receipt of a post-race scrutineering report, Race Stewards issued a Decision to exclude the cars of Jazeman and team-mate Jack Lemvard for a technical infringement of the regulations. In view of the severity of the offence and the fact that the same team had contravened the technical regulations on an earlier occasion during the season, the decision also included the exclusion of CIMB Team Qi-Meritus from the 2007 championship.[1] The decision put Jazeman second in the drivers' classification at the end of the season, just one point behind Zahir Ali. Meritus submitted an official appeal on the disqualification of their drivers in the race and their exclusion from the team championship.

The Federation Automobile of Sport China confirmed that they received the letter of appeal from the team dated 5 November 2007. Team Qi-Meritus learned that the appeals lodged with FASC against the decisions of the stewards at Zhuhai were overturned in favour of the drivers and team. The decision meant that Jazeman was handed back the drivers' title and Qi-Meritus also won the constructors' trophy. Jazeman became the youngest ever winner in the history of Formula BMW at 14 years old. [2]

Jazeman contested two seasons in Formula BMW Europe in seasons 2008 and 2009, driving for Holzer Rennsport and Eifelland Racing respectively; finishing fourteenth and ninth in the two seasons.

Formula Three

Jazeman moved into the British Formula 3 Championship, starting with the 2010 season and driving for Carlin.

In 2012, Jazeman finished second in the overall drivers' championship in the British F3 International Series and also being the First Asian to win the Grand Prix de Pau. He crossed the line in third place at the final round in Donnington Park race weekend to seal the runner-up spot with 306 points.[3] Jazeman is setting his sights on either the World Series by Renault or the GP2 Series in 2013 as the natural career progression after achieving his best overall placing in the British F3 championship.[4]

Formula Renault 3.5

Jazeman stepped up to Formula Renault 3.5 with Carlin for the 2013 season.[5] In his 3 seasons of Formula Renault 3.5, he collected a total of 1 Pole Position, 7 Podiums and became the Winner of the Monaco Grand Prix with Fortec. He drove for the Czech based ISR Racing and English, Fortec Motorsports respectively.
