Abbie Eaton is a two-time British champion making her Dunlop Super2 Series debut in 2019 with Matt Stone Racing.

Eaton is well-respected throughout Europe, having won a round of the Blancpain GT Endurance Series in 2017 in a Ferrari.

A long-time Supercars fan, she also regularly competes in historic races in a Peter Brock replica Commodore owned by her father, while also conducting race training for young drivers.

She shot to prominence in the second series of Amazon Prime Video’s The Grand Tour as the test driver alongside Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May.

In Clarkson’s words, Eaton was accepted to The Grand Tour because she ‘was the fastest’ of the drivers they tested.

Through this role, she has become one of the most adaptable drivers in the world, plying her trade on a weekly basis in equipment worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, alongside her racing.
