Daniel Rowbottom is a British touring car driver competing in the British Touring Car Championship. He debuted in the series in 2019 with Cataclean Plato Racing and has accumulated six wins and 21 podiums across 184 starts through the 2026 season. His Racer Rating of 4,815 places him in the upper tier of the professional touring car field.[1]
Rowbottom's seven seasons in the BTCC have been spent primarily competing against the series' strongest drivers. His most frequent rivals have been front-running professionals including Tom Ingram and Ash Sutton, both multiple champions with significantly higher Racer Ratings; across 157 shared races against Ingram and 154 against Sutton, Rowbottom has finished ahead of them on 36 and 32 occasions respectively, establishing himself as a consistent if clearly secondary force to these rivals. He has also regularly raced alongside Jake Hill and Josh Cook, drivers of comparable or stronger standing, and holds a winning record against Adam Morgan, a professional of near-equal rating. His average finishing position of P10.7 reflects the depth and competitiveness of the BTCC grid at its standard level. Rowbottom moved to Plato Racing (latterly Plato Racing Team RML) in 2026 and recorded his first win for the team early that season.[2]
