Biography Aaron Borg is one of Australia's youngest and most determined drivers ready to make the next step in his quest to race in Formula One. Whilst there are many race drivers out there who want to race in Formula One, very few, if any, are as committed and dedicated to achieving this goal as Aaron Borg. His grit determination has been demonstrated since 1997 when Aaron had to have open-heart surgery to remove a life-threatening blockage from within his heart. Aaron's goal has always been to race in Formula One and it was this desire that got him through this tremendous adversity. Just one example of Aaron's commitment and desire was after his operation when he could barely walk. After many attempts in trying to get Aaron to walk, Aaron's parents, Martin & Lorraine, told him that he wouldn't be able to race in Go Karts unless he started to walk. After saying this, Aaron immediately began trying to walk again and after making great progress was able to walk out of the hospital only 2 weeks later. With this commitment and determination, Aaron presents himself as a great candidate to become an ambassador for any company. 3 years later and after a few check-ups, Aaron was given the all-clear to race in Go Karts. Just after his 10th Birthday, Aaron was given his first Go Kart and success came almost immediately, finishing on the podium twice in only his first three race meetings and recording his first victory after only 9. Now after 8 years of racing, Aaron has achieved almost 90 podium finishes including several wins in State and National series'. From his successful Karting career, Aaron has now been offered a drive to compete in an Open wheel racing category in the 2009 season. At the age of 18, Aaron is constantly working on his fitness so that he is ready to progress into Formula Renault when he is given the financial support to do so. He trains 6 days a week, both physically and mentally. This intense program includes a 13.5km cycle, 3km run and a 2km swim. He also does weights, flexibility, core strength and various mental exercises. This is yet another guarantee that Aaron will always try 110% to improve himself both on and off the track, which will be helpful for those around him. On top of his racing success and fitness levels, Aaron is a smart kid and plans to complete a mechanical engineering degree so he can understand all the ins and outs of a race car, while at the same time continuing his racing career. He also has plans to do Business Studies, using these skills will help him to understand and be able to run a race team and deal with sponsorships in a professional manner. Aaron is a dedicated and committed young man who will do everything within his power to perform the best he can and to work closely and efficiently with all those around him.
