Charlie Eastwood (born 11 August 1995 in Belfast) is a racing driver from Northern Ireland who currently competes in the FIA World Endurance Championship for TF Sport.
[3][4] Having become the 2012 Rotax Max World Karting champion, Eastwood began his single-seater career in 2014, driving in the BRDC Formula 4 Championship for Douglas Motorsport.
[10][11] In the former, Eastwood and teammates Ahmad Al Harthy and Euan McKay struggled, scoring a best in-class finish of fourth to end up seventh in the standings, last of all full-time entrants.
[14][15] In the WEC, Eastwood and Yoluç were joined by pro driver Jonathan Adam, alongside whom they won the LMGTE Am category at the 2020 24 Hours of Le Mans and took the runner-up spot in the championship thanks to three further victories.
[20] Listed in the Pro-Am subclass, Eastwood and Salih Yoluç scored a lone win at Le Castellet alongside Harry Tincknell and placed fourth in the standings, having withdrawn from the season finale due to a crash in practice.
[29][30] This proved to be preparation for a double campaign, as Eastwood returned to the ELMS to defend his and RTT's Pro-Am title, whilst also leading ORT by TF in the FIA World Endurance Championship, partnering Michael Dinan and Ahmad Al Harthy in the LMGTE Am category.
[40][41] He would return to the WEC with TF Sport, driving a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R in the newly formed LMGT3 category alongside Rui Andrade and Tom van Rompuy.
