Career Overview

Tom is a 24-year-old British racing driver with over eight years of GT and prototype racing experience. He has driven for Aston Martin Racing as a Junior Driver since 2019, competing in British GT, GT4 European Series, GT Cup, GT Open, British Endurance Championship, Le Mans Cup and Asian Le Mans Series with factory support.

In 2019, Tom won the British GT4 Championship before claiming the AMR Academy title — the achievement that saw him signed as an Aston Martin Junior Driver. Since then he's gone on to become GT Cup Champion, taking on an increasingly full and varied racing schedule across multiple championships and continents in the years since joining the brand.

For the past four years, Tom has also served as a high-performance test driver for Aston Martin. He continues to work with Dynisma as a simulator test driver, helping develop car models for Formula 1, Formula E and endurance teams, and has taken on a further test driver role with Zenvo Automotive, working on the Aurora Tur and Aurora Agil.

For 2026, Tom joins Ecurie Ecosse Blackthorn to contest the GT3 class of the Michelin Le Mans Cup, sharing the #91 Aston Martin Vantage AMR GT3 Evo with Claude Bovet — continuing his relationship with the Aston Martin GT3 platform at a new level of international competition. Alongside this, he continues to broaden his racing portfolio in the Indian Racing League and Iberian Historics, while maintaining his development and testing commitments.
