Andy Neate is a British racing driver who spent six seasons in the British Touring Car Championship between 2016 and 2021, accumulating 49 starts without recording a win or podium finish. He raced primarily for Racing with Wera & Photon Group and spent 28 starts with Motorbase Performance. His average finishing position across all classified races was 21st, placing him in the lower half of a competitive professional touring car field.[1]
Neate's record against the BTCC's stronger drivers illustrates the competitive tier at which he operated. He shared 37 races with four-time champion Ash Sutton, finishing ahead on only two occasions; 34 races with FIA Gold-graded two-time champion Tom Ingram, ahead just once; and 33 races each with FIA Gold-graded former champion Colin Turkington and FIA Silver-graded Josh Cook, trailing both substantially. His most frequent rival was Aiden Moffat, a professional-level driver with whom Neate finished ahead three times in 35 shared races. These head-to-head records reflect a semi-professional career spent competing against established touring car professionals and former champions, without establishing himself as a regular threat in the grid.[2]
Neate retired from touring car racing after the 2021 season. The record shows headlines indicating interest in British Formula 4, a junior single-seater series, in 2021 and 2024, though these appear to reference a driver of the same surname rather than Andy Neate himself and should not be read as part of his documented racing career.
