Harry Barton

Harry Barton is a young and ambitious racing driver hailing from the United Kingdom. Born into a family with a passion for classic cars, Harry's journey into motorsport began unconventionally, inspired by the movie "Ford vs Ferrari." Rather than pursuing the typical Formula 4 route, Harry was drawn to the world of historic racing.

Barton's career gained momentum through his participation in Masters Historic Racing, initially competing in a BMW 1800 TISA in the Pre-66 Touring Car series. He later expanded his efforts to include the Masters Gentlemen Drivers series, piloting a TVR Griffith. According to Barton Racing's website, in 2025, Harry is concentrating 100% on his racing career and his Le Mans target. He will be competing in the Britcar Championship in the UK, driving a BMW M3, and the NLS Series for GT4 cars at Nurburgring in Germany, driving a Toyota Supra. This showcases his commitment to both classic and modern racing disciplines. He is being mentored by Nigel Greensall.

Barton's racing ambitions extend beyond historic events. His goals include competing in modern sports car championships and ultimately participating in the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans. His dedication, combined with his family's support through Barton Racing, positions him as a rising star with a bright future in the sport. In his first season, Harry achieved four first-in-class wins, marking him as a talent to watch.
