ABOUT JACK
Jack Burgess is a 15-year-old racing driver from Manchester, currently competing in the BRSCC Fiesta Junior Championship. Jack isn’t just chasing race wins—he’s on a mission to prove that with passion, hard work, and the right mindset, anything is possible.
Diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 7 and more recently with Autism, Jack has faced challenges throughout his academic and social life. But motorsport has always been his focus—his space to thrive. Racing gives Jack structure, motivation, and a sense of identity that goes beyond any diagnosis. It’s not just a sport; it’s his future.
From the moment he stepped into a kart, Jack knew where he wanted to go. He began racing competitively in 2022 and quickly found success with XKART, one of the most respected teams on the UK karting scene. With the support of his coach James Taylor, Jack developed into a smart, aggressive, and consistent driver. He finished 4th in the highly competitive Whilton Mill Kart Club Championship—an achievement that put him firmly on the radar.
In 2024, Jack made the transition from karting to cars with BPC Motorsport, joining the Fiesta Junior Championship a full year earlier than expected. Despite the step up in pace, pressure, and professionalism, he made immediate progress, scoring a 5th-place finish at Silverstone and 4th at Thruxton, with a string of top-10 results across the season.
Away from the track, Jack is just as determined to raise awareness and break down barriers. He’s featured in the Amazon TV karting docuseries Driven Dreams, where he shares his journey as a young driver with neurodiverse experiences.
In 2024, he began filming for a San Francisco-based documentary titled Racing on the Spectrum, highlighting his role as a positive influence for others navigating life with Autism and ADHD.
With big goals and even bigger ambition, Jack is fully focused on developing as a driver and progressing through the motorsport ranks.
Whether it’s on track, in front of the camera, or partnering with sponsors, Jack Burgess is proving what can be achieved when you refuse to give up.
