Casper Stevenson (born 22 April 2003) is a British racing driver who is competing for D'Station Racing in the FIA World Endurance Championship and the Asian Le Mans Series. He previously raced in the GT World Challenge Europe for the AKKodis ASP Team and became Euroformula Open rookies' champion in 2021.
Stevenson mainly developed his karting career in the United Kingdom, racing in the various classes of the Super 1 National Kart Championships. [1]
Stevenson made his car racing debut in the winter series of the Ginetta Junior Championship in November 2018, before a full-time entry the following year with Richardson Racing. [2] He finished the season 6th overall with nine podiums, and 2nd in the rookie standings behind Zak O'Sullivan. [3] [4]
In November 2019, following an assessment day at Silverstone, Stevenson won the inaugural F4 British Championship scholarship prize. [5] [6] He subsequently signed with new team Argenti Motorsport, which took over reigning champions Double R Racing's cars, for 2020. [7] He started the year off with consistent points finishes, before a run of nine consecutive podiums halfway through the season propelled him to 3rd in the standings. [8] He achieved his first two wins in cars at Silverstone and Croft in the process. [9] [10]
Though initially planning to race in the Formula Regional European Championship for Van Amersfoort Racing in 2021, [11] for which he prepared during the winter in Asian F3, [12] Stevenson ended up joining the team in the Euroformula Open instead. [13] He took two wins throughout the season on his way to 6th in the standings, and was crowned rookies' champion. [14] [15]
Stevenson competed in the Gulf 12 Hours in January 2022, driving a Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo for 2 Seas Motorsport. [16] He finished fourth overall and third in his class, alongside gentleman drivers Ian Loggie and Morgan Tillbrook. [17] Stevenson gained praise after a competitive stint that saw him close in on platinum-rated factory driver Ben Barnicoat, in what was his professional sportscar racing debut. [18]
He then contested the GT World Challenge Europe for the AKKodis ASP Team, partnering Tommaso Mosca and Konstantin Tereshchenko in the Endurance Cup and Thomas Drouet in the Sprint Cup. [19] [20] Having taken six podiums from his first seven races before racing at the historic Spa 24 Hours in late July, Stevenson finished runner-up in the Silver class of the Sprint Cup and ninth in the Endurance Cup.
In 2023, Stevenson moved to Aston Martin Racing to make his debut in the FIA World Endurance Championship, driving for the TF Sport-operated D'station Racing team in the GTE Am class alongside Satoshi Hoshino and Tomonobu Fujii. [21] [22] He finished 2nd in the last race of the FIA World Endurance Championship in the 8 hours of Bahrain.
He also notably finished 3rd in the Spa 24 Hours in the Pro-Am class in early July.
† As Stevenson was a guest driver, he was ineligible for a championship position.
