  • Simon Blanckley is a British racing driver from Durham and former driver in the British Touring Car Championship. He began racing in 2000 having followed in the footsteps of his Uncle, John Blanckley ,a World Sportscar Racer and Historic rally Driver. Simon Competed in the Ultra Competitive 2006 Super Touring Car Cup with LMA in an ex Works Honda Accord Super Tourer run by Graham Hathaway . He won every race he entered that season bar 1 and totally dominated the Series . He then moved up to the BTCC in 2007 .,. He raced an ex Team Halfords Honda Integra under the banner of his newly formed Team Sibsport Performance working with former Independent Champion team owner Graham Hathaway. The Season was a steep learning curve for Simon , however several top 10 running positions and as high as 6th at his home Circuit of Croft . They scored a point at Rockingham.with a top 10 finish which was a massive achievement for a Privateer Team in a very competitive season . At Oulton Park he missed race 3 due to accident damage sustained during race 2. At Donington Park he had pace but no results. Before round 8 the team pulled out, due to Blanckley's work commitments. 2008 saw multiple wins in the new Seat Leon Supercopa culminating in races in Spain at the end of the year. Sibsport then purchased a Porsche 997 GT3 Cup and again many podiums and a Win at Spa in the GT Cup were achieved . 2017 saw Sibsport move to Historics and compete at the Goodwood Revival in an Austin A40 with Matt Neal sharing the drive with Simon . An 8th overall finish was a great effort against more powerful machinery . (en)
