Hana Burton

is a Japanese-based American racing driver competing in Kyojo Cup for SCS Team TOM'S.

Career While working in the marketing department of HKS, Burton participated on her first track day event at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway in 2019. After attending other track day events, Burton met fellow racing driver Arisa Mizuhara, who helped her obtain a Japanese racing licence ahead of the 2022 Toyota Yaris Cup East Japan Series, in which she sealed the Rookie of the Year and Goodyear Awards. In 2023, Burton moved to the all-female Kyojo Cup with Fujita Pharmacy Racing, taking a best result of eighth in the finale to end her rookie year 11th in points. Returning to the series the following year, Burton scored three points finishes, including a best result of fourth, en route to a ninth-place points finish.

With the series switching to a KC-MG01 chassis and Super Formula teams joining for 2025, Burton joined TOM'S for her third season, as a Toyota Gazoo Racing-supported driver. Despite qualifying an impressive second in the season-opener, Burton was only able to muster a best result of sixth three times to end her campaign ninth overall. During 2025, Burton also made her Super Taikyu debut for Access Racing Team in the ST-5F class at the Fuji 24 Hours, as well as founding her own Circuit Orange team. In May, Burton also made a one-off appearance in Radical Cup Korea, taking two SR1 class wins at Yeongam.

The following year, Burton remained with TOM'S to remain in Kyojo Cup, as well as joining Club Mazda Spirit Racing for her maiden full-time season in the ST-5R class of Super Taikyu. During 2026, Burton also joined 610Racing to make her debut in the China GT Championship, winning both races at Ningbo in the 992 class alongside Shi Wei.
