Welcome to the Archive of the British Racing Drivers' Club.

The story of the British Racing Drivers' Club started way back in the days of the famous Bentley team that so effectively, and romantically, dominated the racing scene - Le Mans in particular, during the late 1920s.

The founder of the BRDC, Dr. J. D. Benjafield, one of the famed 'Bentley Boys' at Le Mans, was keen to organise dinner parties after races for the drivers and his friends. It was these dinner parties which were the real seed from which grew the highly prestigious and much respected British Racing Drivers' Club that we know today.

For over sixty years the BRDC and its Members have been active in all spheres of world motorsport - helping the Club to gain the title 'Champion of British Motorsport'.

This Archive is dedicated to Members, past and present, who have worn the badge of the BRDC with pride.
