James Pull is a professional driver competing at sportscar and endurance racing level, with a Racer Rating of 4,891 placing him among established professional drivers. The FIA Gold grading confirms his status as a full professional within GT and endurance racing. Pull has raced for 11 seasons from 2015 to 2026 across 89 starts, compiling 2 wins and 26 podiums. His career began in single-seaters with Carlin, where he spent the bulk of his early years; he took 2 wins in 51 British F4 starts between 2015 and 2016, then moved to GB3 for two seasons without reaching the podium in 26 starts, finishing with 14 podium finishes across that span. This junior career established him as a capable but not exceptional prospect at that level.[1]

Pull's transition to sportscar racing came in 2019 with GT World Challenge Europe, where he competed for Team WRT across three seasons in 10 starts without securing a podium. His on-track record in sportscar racing shows a mixed picture against the professional field. Against established professionals, Pull has a dominant record over Nicolai Kjaergaard across 50 shared races, finishing ahead 47 times, and beats semi-professional Rafael Martins 23 to 18 across 41 races. However, he has struggled against stronger drivers; he finished behind Enaam Ahmed in 35 of 49 races against the former champion, and behind Sennan Fielding in 30 of 45 races. He has isolated wins against several elite-level drivers, including four finishes ahead of Lando Norris and single results over Charles Weerts and Maro Engel, though these appear as one-off results rather than consistent pattern. His average finishing position of P8.2 across all classified starts reflects a mid-field competitor in the fields he contests.[2]

Pull is currently racing in Super GT's GT300 class as of 2026, continuing his endurance racing career in Japan. His recent activity includes participation in Super Taikyu Series racing, where he has been developing competitive pace. He remains an active professional driver focused on sportscar racing rather than single-seater progression, his career path diverging from junior formula progression into sustained GT and endurance competition.
