Leslie Johnson was a British racing driver who made a single Formula 1 appearance in 1950, driving for ERA in what would be the only season of his Grand Prix career on record. He finished outside the points in twenty-third place in that solitary start, competing in a field that represented the sport's early years when the grid was smaller and driver turnover high.[1]

Johnson's broader racing interests, documented in his era, encompassed rallies, hill climbs, and sports car racing alongside his Grand Prix venture, though the competitive record here captures only his Formula 1 participation. His one-race Grand Prix stint places him among hundreds of drivers who sampled the sport without establishing a sustained presence in the championship. ERA, the constructor he drove for, fielded seven drivers across its history in this database without recording a race win, though the team's strongest effort came through Stirling Moss, a front-running professional of considerably higher standing than Johnson's single-race sample permits.[2]
