🇬🇧 Sam Osborne

Sam Osborne is an entry-level professional racing in the British Touring Car Championship, a national solo single-seater series that fields a mix of amateur, semi-professional and professional drivers together. He has raced for NAPA Racing UK since 2019.[1]

Osborne has contested eight seasons in the BTCC across 228 starts, taking one win and two podiums. He sits 23rd in the 2026 championship standings with more rounds remaining. His best finish came early in his career; his sole victory arrived in 2019, and he has taken a second podium in the intervening years.[2]

The field he races in regularly includes Ash Sutton, a four-time BTCC champion, and Aiden Moffat, a professional with over 350 championship starts. Osborne has finished ahead of both drivers on occasion, most notably beating Sutton fourteen times and Ingram, the 2022 and 2025 champion, nine times, though he typically concludes races behind them. His record reflects the character of his campaign: a long tenure in a mixed-level field where he has occasionally beaten the strongest regulars but more consistently occupied the mid-to-lower order. Osborne announced plans to retire from the series at the end of the 2026 season.
