🇬🇧 John Bennett

John Bennett is a professional racing driver competing in Formula 2 for TRIDENT, the multiclass international championship that mixes amateur and graded professional drivers in a single-seater grid. His primary grounding comes from GB3, the British national single-seater series where he spent three seasons from 2022 to 2024, taking three wins and thirteen podiums across 66 starts. He moved to Formula 2 in 2024 and remains active there through 2026.[1]

Over his indexed career spanning seven seasons and 131 starts, Bennett has taken four wins: three in GB3 and one in Formula 2. His two Formula 2 podiums came against a field that included established professionals and graded drivers, though he has consistently finished behind Alex Dunne, a 2022 British F4 champion with whom he regularly races. Against Cian Shields, an FIA Silver-graded professional also competing in Formula 2 and GB3, Bennett typically finishes ahead. He has recorded single race finishes over stronger drivers: he beat Andrea Kimi Antonelli, a generational driver and multiple Formula 4 champion, once, and did so against Isack Hadjar, an elite professional with Formula 1 experience, once as well, though these remain individual results rather than patterns in head-to-head racing.[2]

Bennett has raced for Van Amersfoort Racing in 31 of his 131 starts, a team that has fielded Max Verstappen among 109 drivers across its indexed history. His most recent activity in 2025 SVRA, a multiclass American championship, consisted of a single start.
