🏳️ Richard Walker

Richard Walker is a competitive amateur racing driver in the International GT series, where his Racer Rating of 2,431 places him at the front of club racing. This rating describes a driver who competes seriously within amateur fields and occasionally races against professionals, though typically does not beat them at a sustained level. Over three seasons from 2024 to 2026, Walker has contested 13 races in International GT and finished on the podium in eleven of them, including five victories. His average finishing position of P2.2 demonstrates remarkable consistency at the sharp end of the field he inhabits.[1]

Walker's competitive head-to-head record reflects his standing. Among regular rivals, he holds a strong advantage over drivers in his own amateur tier, finishing ahead of Mark Cook, Maria Mejia, Jason Alexander and Derick Cooper in the majority of their shared races. The notable instances where he has beaten established professionals come as individual results rather than patterns; he has finished ahead of FIA Bronze-graded Steven Thomas once in four races and Daniel Herrington once across their meetings. Against the broader field of stronger drivers, FIA Silver-graded Josh Hurley and Bronze-graded John Dean among them, he has picked up single victories but predominantly finishes behind them. His 2026 season continues this trajectory, with two wins and four podiums accumulated through four rounds.[2]
