🇺🇸 Matt Bell

Matt Bell holds a Racer Rating of 4,651, placing him in the professional category: a driver capable of winning in strong fields and regularly competing at a high level in his chosen discipline. His FIA grading as Silver confirms he operates at professional standard within sportscar and endurance racing, though typically as a younger or developing entrant in that world. His record spans five seasons from 2012 to 2026, though his significant activity has clustered in 2025 and early 2026, with a fourteen-year gap between his 2012 World Endurance Championship start and his return to regular racing.[1]

Bell's most productive period came in 2025 in GT World Challenge America, where he scored four wins and ten podiums across twelve starts for DXDT Racing, achieving an average finish of P4.2 across his career. His consistency in that series placed him ahead of respected rivals across multiple meetings: he outscored established professionals including Philip Ellis and Justin Rothberg, both multiple GT championship winners, and showed markedly better form than semi-professional competitors including Gray Newell. He also finished ahead of Maro Engel, a Platinum-rated European GT champion, and twice beat Shane Van Gisbergen, a two-time Supercars Champion. Against his most frequent rival Tom Sargent, a fellow Silver-graded professional, Bell compiled a 10-2 advantage over twelve shared races. His record against Robby Foley, the 2025 GT World Challenge America Pro-Am champion, was even at six wins apiece. Against the higher-rated Aaron Telitz, a former Mazda Pro champion and IMSA GTD title holder, Bell managed only two wins in twelve meetings. His early 2026 activity in McLaren Trophy America yielded no results in two starts, and his sole World Endurance Championship appearance in 2012 resulted in a P38 finish.[2]
