Early career 2023

Having learned racing craft in karting, Peebles made his debut in single seaters, at the age of 15, with Tecnicar Motorsport Solutions in the 2023 F4 Spanish Championship. He went on to achieve one points finish at the first race of the Circuit of Jerez en route to a 25th-place points finish at season's end. During 2023, Peebles also competed part-time in the F4 British, Italian F4 and Euro 4 Championships.

In the former, he got his first podium in the first race of the season at the Circuit of Jerez, where he also achieved his first win of the season in the second race of the weekend. At the next round on the Circuit Ricardo Tormo, Peebles appeared on the podium in all 3 races taking the Championship lead from Cárdenas. The third round of the season at MotorLand Aragón proved to be a more difficult one, as Peebles only scored points twice with a best result of fourth in race 3 of the weekend while new teammate Keanu Al Azhari managed to get a win and second place in his first races of the season. Peebles still kept the lead going into the last weekend of the season. Going into the race weekend at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, the first race was cancelled due to adverse weather conditions. The second and third race went ahead, both races were won by Peebles claiming the title in the last race against Andrés Cárdenas who drove for Campos Racing.

In the Spanish championship, Peebles took his first podium of the season in race two of the second round of the season at Algarve by finishing third. Two rounds later, Peebles was back on the podium as he finished second in race three in Aragón, before finishing second in the following race at Valencia, from which he started on pole. Peebles then rounded off the season with a third-place finish in race one of the season-ending round at Barcelona as he ended his sophomore season in single-seaters with a ninth-place points finish. During 2024, Peebles also represented Australia in the Formula 4 Cup of the FIA Motorsport Games, finishing fourth.

Peebles won on debut in race one at Dubai and finished the other three races on the podium to secure fifth in the LMP3 driver standings helping Bretton Racing secure their first LMP3 teams championship.
