Richard Williams is a British racing driver whose career included a stint in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup as part of the SPS Automotive Performance Team before he settled into British GT Championship competition with Steller Motorsport. Across his time in British GT, Williams built a record of 17 starts, three wins and eight podium finishes, a body of work that culminated in a British GT Championship title in 2022. He is now listed as retired from active competition, closing out a career built around consistent front-of-field performances in British GT machinery.[1]
Williams' final documented season, 2026, saw him take two wins and six podiums across nine rounds, though a P35 finish in the standings reflected a season of strong individual results without sustained championship contention. His Racer Rating of 2,743 places him 1310th among active drivers on the database's Elo-style scale, a figure that reflects a solid, if not elite, level of competitiveness relative to the sport's highest-rated performers, who sit in the 10,000 to 11,500 range. Taken as a whole, his record shows a driver who reached the top step of a national championship and maintained a respectable win and podium rate over a modest number of starts before stepping away from the series.[2]
