He previously raced in the 2023 FIA Formula 3 Championship with Prema Racing, coming third in the standings.

2018

Aron won the CIK-FIA Karting European Championship in 2018.

2019

He also won the rookie cup in the 2019 Italian F4 Championship and placed third in the regular standings.

Starting in Estonia at the age of 8, Aron climbed the karting ladder as he was soon racing all over Europe but mostly in Italy.

Aron made his single-seater debut in the 2019 ADAC Formula 4 Championship, racing for Prema Powerteam.

Aron did not wait long to take his first win, taking his first in Austria.

Two rounds later, he would win again in Netherlands, both of aforementioned wins would be his only podiums.

He continued to score consistently and ended seventh in the standings.

Aron's more successful campaign in 2019 came in the Italian F4 Championship, also racing for Prema.

He again took his first win at the Austria, the fourth round of the season.

His other win was achieved at the penultimate round in Mugello.

Having scored six other podiums, Aron finished the year in third behind Red Bull junior driver Dennis Hauger and Brazilian FDA-member Gianluca Petecof.

Thanks to nine rookie victories Aron became the rookie champion.

After testing with them in the post-season test at Paul Ricard in November 2019, Aron was signed to ART Grand Prix's new Formula Renault Eurocup outfit for the 2020 season.

Aron had a difficult campaign, his high point of the season being his only podium, a second place at the Nürburgring.

the Estonian was outscored by his more experienced teammates Grégoire Saucy and eventual champion Victor Martins and finished eleventh in the standings.

In 2021 Aron moved back to Prema to partner David Vidales and Dino Beganovic in the Formula Regional European Championship.

The Estonian's first podium came at the opening round at Imola, where he finished second in race 2, being beaten only by previous year's teammate Grégoire Saucy.

Aron was able to finish third at the following two rounds respectively, but would then go on a podium drought that lasted until the seventh round of the season, which included a non-points scoring round at Circuit Paul Ricard.

He would end that streak by finishing third during the first race at the Red Bull Ring.

After a round in which he finished fourth and twelfth in Valencia, Aron claimed his first pole position of the season at the Mugello Circuit.

He would then swoop by to take his first win in the series.

The next day was just as superior for him, again taking pole and ending a complete sweep with a win.

He concluded his season in Monza with a second place.

Aron finished the year third overall with 197 points, two wins and seven total podiums behind Saucy and Hadrien David.

During pre-season in 2022, Aron joined Abu Dhabi Racing by Prema for the Asian Championship.

Aron did not win a race during that championship, but did manage to take a double pole during the third Dubai round.

Claiming three podiums, he was classified ninth in the standings.

Aron continued with Prema for the 2022 Formula Regional European Championship.

He got off to a great start, winning pole and the second race during the Monza opening round.

After a third place in Imola, he had a terrible weekend in Monaco as a crash in qualifying hampered a chance of points.

He would bounce back with a win at Paul Ricard, before completing a complete sweep in the next round at Zandvoort.

However, the Estonian would go podium-less throughout the next three rounds, despite taking two pole positions at Spa-Francorchamps and the Red Bull Ring.

A win followed in Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya which was followed by another podium in the second race.

The final round in Mugello witnessed Aron notch up yet another victory in the first race, but his title challenge ended as teammate Dino Beganovic was crowned champion.

However, a poor second race meant that he failed to score, and race winner Gabriele Minì pipped Aron to second in the standings by four points.

This meant Aron again finished third in the standings but he scored more points that the year before (238), had the most wins of anyone that season, (6), and the most poles (7).
