Like Charles said on the HP. A talented driver can make up for a lot. And if you need proof? Check out this video...

I seriously need to take some more driver training. If I could seriously be half as good as this dude, I'd call it good!

I raced in GrandAm many years ago. I still hold a competition license. Skill definitely matters. And seat time. As well as 100 other factors. If he's got the goods, he'll get a test somewhere and possible a ride in wheel-to-wheel racing. But, let's not declare this guy the next Senna (am I dating myself?), yet.
But, I would always encourage anyone with any interest to go through a formal school. Reportedly, most of the ex-Skip Barber (my alma mater...RIP) instructors are reportedly now over at Lucas.
Beware, however. If you get the bug, break open the wallet. Honestly, while I can add what I've spent up, it was worth every penny along the way.
