Marcus Clutton

Marcus Clutton (born 3 March 1989) is a British racing driver set to compete for Orange Racing powered by JMH in the British GT Championship.

Career Clutton made his car racing debut in 2005, competing in the Porsche Club Championship. After appearances in Britcar and the BARC Formula Renault championship over the following two years, Clutton raced in select rounds of the 2009 British GT Championship for ABG Motorsport in the Supersport class, which he won after winning all three races he entered. Two years later, Clutton returned to the series and ABG to compete in the GT4 class, scoring three wins and four other podiums to seal the class title at season's end.

Following that, Clutton spent the next three seasons dabbling in the British Endurance Championship and the GT Cup Championship, before joining Chevron Cars to race in all but one round of the GT4 European Series. In his only season in the series, Clutton scored an outright win at Misano to take seventh in the Pro standings. Part-time appearances in the Britcar Endurance and British GT Championships then followed in 2017 and 2018, before primarily racing in the Radical Challenge Championship across the next two seasons, in which he took the Solo Challenge title in 2020. During 2020, Clutton also won the GT Cup Championship GT3 title for JMH Automotive, as well as making a one-off return to the British GT Championship for the same team in a Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo.
