Bobby Thompson is a professional driver competing primarily in the British Touring Car Championship, where he has raced for Zeus Cloud Racing with WSR since 2018. He holds an FIA Silver grade, placing him among drivers developing towards the higher professional tiers in endurance and sportscar racing. His record spans eight seasons and 139 starts across national and international series, including a recent move into North American single-seater prototypes.[1]
Thompson's career has been built on consistency in the BTCC, where his 134 starts and four podiums place him as a mid-grid regular in a field mixing amateurs and established professionals. His most prominent recent results came in the 2025 Radical Cup NA season, where he took two wins and three podiums across three starts, finishing seventh in the championship standings. He has also raced in multiclass endurance competition, including the international 24H Series in 2022 and GT World Challenge Europe in 2026, making his debut in the latter at Nürburgring under Paradine Competition.[2]
In the BTCC, Thompson regularly encounters established professionals: Ash Sutton, a four-time champion with over 300 starts in the series, and Tom Ingram, a two-time champion holding an FIA Gold grade. Thompson has finished ahead of both drivers on multiple occasions across their shared seasons, though he typically qualifies behind them in the standings. His results in the Radical Cup suggest stronger pace relative to his peers in that field, where he won races in his debut season.
