🇮🇹 Tom Wood

Tom Wood is a Silver-graded sportscar driver competing in the British GT Championship and GT World Challenge Europe. His Racer Rating of 4,158 places him at professional level; this means he is a national-championship calibre driver who beats semi-professionals comfortably and holds his own in fields of established professionals, though he does not yet win races or podium consistently at the top tier. Across three seasons from 2024 to 2026, Wood has made 11 starts without a win or podium finish, averaging P11.7. He has raced primarily for Beechdean Motorsport Ltd in the British GT Championship, where he has contested ten rounds, and made a single appearance in the 2026 GT World Challenge Europe for Ecurie Ecosse Blackthorn.[1]

Wood's competitive record shows a consistent pattern of finishing behind the stronger drivers in shared fields. Against Maximilian Götz, a Platinum-graded former DTM champion and 2025 British GT Championship GT3 winner, Wood finished ahead in three of ten encounters but trailed him seven times. Similar gaps appear against Hugo Cook, Alex Martin, and Kiern Jewiss, a former British F4 champion; Wood was outpaced in eight of ten races by each. He has finished ahead of much stronger drivers only in isolated instances: he beat Lance Stroll, a Platinum professional and former FIA Formula 3 European champion, once across their meetings, and registered single victories over Tom Gamble and Mari Boya. These stand as individual results rather than patterns of competitive advantage. Marcus Clutton, a Gold-graded driver, is among the few rivals of comparable or lower rating whom Wood has beaten more often than not, finishing ahead in three of their ten shared races.[2]

Wood remains active in 2026, recently competing at Spa in the British GT Championship alongside his GT World Challenge Europe campaign with Ecurie Ecosse Blackthorn. His career shows the development of a Silver-level professional steadily building experience in sportscar racing within the British GT environment.
