Mike Bushell is a British touring car driver who competed in the BTCC from 2015 to 2020, accumulating 76 starts across six seasons without recording a win or podium finish. He came to the series as the 2014 Renault Clio Cup UK champion and made a one-off appearance in 2013 at Knockhill before committing to a full campaign. His career in the category was characterised by consistent mid-field running, with an average finishing position of P16.8 among classified results.[1]
Throughout his time in the BTCC, Bushell raced primarily for RCIB Insurance with Fox Transport and also spent significant time with Trade Price Cars and Brisky Racing. He regularly competed against front-running professionals and multiple champions, including Colin Turkington, Tom Ingram and Ash Sutton, all substantially higher-rated drivers who finished ahead of him in the majority of their shared races. His head-to-head record against the broader field reveals occasional strong results; he finished ahead of Sutton on 10 occasions and bested Ingram and Jake Hill 6 and 10 times respectively across their overlapping campaigns, though these victories were isolated moments within consistently lopsided records. His Racer Rating of 2,259 reflects a semi-professional career at club racing standard, materially below the national championship tier. Bushell's most recent appearance was in 2020, when he scored no podiums across nine rounds and finished 21st in the final standings, after which he retired from active competition.[2]
