Scott Kevin Mansell (born 1 October 1985) is a British former racing driver and YouTube personality.

In June 2015, he started the Driver61 YouTube channel, presenting videos primarily about Formula 1 and autosport in general. In July 2021, he co-founded a YouTube channel called OVERDRIVE (formerly Driven Media), which is primarily for experiments with cars[2] and celebrating the engineering of unique vehicles.[3]

Racing career

An alumnus of Bishop Vesey's Grammar School in Sutton Coldfield, Mansell was the 2004 EuroBOSS champion. Scott was a 2004 McLaren Autosport BRDC Award nominee, losing out to eventual winner Paul di Resta. At the Brands Hatch Indy circuit, Mansell set a lap record of 38.032 seconds during the 2004 EuroBOSS season.[4] As well as the Brands Hatch record, Mansell has also broken lap records at Silverstone, Donington Park, Lausitzring and Zolder in 2004. In the same year Mansell won the BBC Midlands Young Sportsperson of the Year as well as being nominated for the Autosport Club Driver of the Year Award.

In 2009, he was the replacement for Duncan Tappy in the Superleague Formula for Galatasaray.[5] This was his first race since the 2006 United States Grand Prix-supporting round of the Indy Pro Series.
