Austin Dobson

Austin Dobson (19 August 1912 in Lodsworth, Sussex – 13 March 1963 in Cuckfield, Sussex) was a racing driver from England. He was the brother of Arthur Dobson, who was also a racing driver.

In 1936 he shared an Alfa Romeo P3 with Andrew Leitch at the Donington Grand Prix, the pair being flagged off five laps short of full race distance; Austin survived a frightening incident when he went off on oil spilt from his brother's car, but managed to finagle a way through the trees to avoid a serious accident. He took the Alfa to 6th place in the first Hungarian Grand Prix.
