Max Coates is a British racing driver with a modest record in tin-top racing. His documented career comprises three starts in the 2015 BTCC season driving for Infiniti Support Our Paras Racing, where he finished an average of P22.7 and took no wins or podiums. The field he faced included multiple champions and graded professionals; he failed to out-qualify or out-race them across those three rounds. His only documented competitive victory over a named driver came against Adam Morgan, an FIA Silver-graded professional, once in those three races. Against stronger opposition including Tom Ingram, Colin Turkington, Gordon Shedden, and Aiden Moffat, he finished behind them in every encounter.[1]
The record held by Racer DB shows no racing activity between 2015 and his eventual retirement, listing him as inactive. However, recent media reports from 2025 reference victories in Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain and suggest continued competition at that level, which lies outside the authoritative record supplied here.[2]
