GB4 Championship

He kicked off his campaign at Snetterton Circuit, where he would get his maiden podium in the series in only his second race. At the next round in Oulton Park, he would get two more podiums, with then one in his third race being his maiden win in the series. Waberski would go on to score three more victories in the championship, two of which came in the final round at Donington Park.

GB3 Championship

2023

After his successful year in GB4, Waberski joined forces with Fortec Motorsport as he stepped up to join the 2023 GB3 Championship. Waberski had a strong opening round, with a best result of fifth in the reverse-grid race, where he gained ten extra points for achieving ten overtakes over the course of the race. He scored his first podium two rounds later at Spa-Francorchamps. This third-placed finish would turn out to be Waberski's best result of the season, as he finished ninth in the standings, a respectable result considering the strength of the grid over the course of the season.

2024

In early 2024, it was announced that Waberski would be returning to the championship for the 2024 season, this time joining Elite Motorsport. He stated that his "main goal" was "to win the championship". He started the season well, securing a podium in the first round at Oulton Park. Unfortunately for Waberski, this would also end up being his best result of the season, as he scored two further podiums over the course of the season at the Hungaroring and at Silverstone. However, Waberski had a very consistent season as he scored points in every race of the season. This consistency led him to 6th in the standings, finishing above Gerrard Xie, the driver he had been competing with over the 23 races that were held over the course of the year.
