Harry is unique in the world of sports car racing as the only driver to have won both the LMP2 and GTE-Pro class at Le Mans. Both categories were incredibly competitive, not least with the world’s finest proponents in factory GT cars in the latter, often casting the top prototype category in the shade.
He won the twice-round-the-clock epic with Aston Martin in 2020, sharing with compatriot Alex Lynn and Belgian Maxime Martin, adding to his remarkable victory on debut in 2014 with JOTA in LMP2.
He’s also one of very few drivers to race in the GTE-Am, GTE-Pro, LMP2 and LMP1 categories, having raced the innovative but ill-fated front-engined Nissan in the top class in 2015.
Always in demand with the major manufacturers, with Ford he claimed runner-up in GTE-Pro, too, and he won some of America’s biggest races with Mazda’s beautiful prototype at Sebring, Watkins Glen and Road Atlanta’s Petit Le Mans.
He reached the podium at Petit yet again in 2023 with the car he'll be racing at Le Mans, Proton’s new Porsche 963. He'll take his class count to five when he starts the race in June.
The 'Hypercar' model has been developed by Porsche in partnership with Brackley-based engineering expert Multimatic, with whom Harry is contracted. He is racing another of its cars Stateside this season, the new Ford Mustang GT3.
