Timeline
Colin Henry Turkington (born 21 March 1982) is a British racing driver from Northern Ireland who competes in the British Touring Car Championship for Team BMW.
Turkington, who was born in Portadown, began his racing career in the Ulster Karting series in 1993.
He competed in autograss in 1996 and 1997, before moving on to the Northern Irish Metro Championship in 1998, where he won his first title.
He moved on to the Ford Credit Fiesta Zetec Championship in Britain in 1999, winning the title in 2001.
Turkington moved to the BTCC in 2002.
His first BTCC drive was in a year-old MG ZS, sponsored by the pop group Atomic Kitten, partnering fellow Fiesta graduate Gareth Howell.
For 2003, Turkington moved to the manufacturer-backed West Surrey Racing, winning his first race at Brands Hatch and finishing 8th in the Drivers' Championship.
Despite the loss of official MG backing in 2004, he finished 6th in the 2004 Drivers' Championship, taking the second win of his BTCC career at Mondello Park.
For 2005, Turkington replaced champion James Thompson at Vauxhall.
He finished 6th in the Drivers' Championship again, a performance which was not enough for him to retain the seat for the following season.
For 2006, Turkington rejoined WSR to drive an RAC-backed MG ZS alongside Rob Collard.
A strong first half of the season made him the closest challenger to Matt Neal for the title, although Jason Plato pipped him to 2nd in the Drivers' Championship in the final race of the year.
Late in the season, the team switched to bio-ethanol fuel, almost becoming the first team to win a race with it.
He finished 3rd in the 2006 Drivers' Championship, with two wins and 14 podium finishes.
For 2007, the BTC-spec MG was no longer eligible to win the championship outright, so the team switched to the BMW 320si.
Turkington's first win of the season (and BMW's first in the BTCC for over a decade) came in the fourth weekend of the championship at Croft.
Turkington went on to win his first Independent Drivers' title, finishing 5th in the overall Drivers' Championship, with three wins.
Turkington competed with WSR in the Brands Hatch and Macau rounds of the World Touring Car Championship in 2007.
At Brands Hatch, he finished 3rd in the first race on and then finished 4th in the second race, but as his car was not homologated because of its sequential gearbox, Turkington did not collect championship points.
Turkington won four races on his way to 5th in the Drivers' Championship, while also retaining his Independent Drivers' crown.
He also finished every race that season in the top 10.
He is a 4 time BTCC champion, winning the title in 2009, 2014, 2018 and 2019, having made his debut in the series in 2002.
In 2009, Turkington took the championship lead at the mid-season point, and went on to win the BTCC title in a thrilling finale, after winning six races.
Turkington finished consistently, with an unbroken run of eighteen point-scoring finishes, from Croft onwards, failing to finish in just one race.
However WSR lost the title sponsor RAC and Turkington could not attempt to retain his title in 2010.
After a slow start at Brands Hatch and Donington Park where the team spent their time trying to develop the Subaru, Turkington scored a best finish of 10th at Donington Park.
The team withdrew all four Subarus from the Thruxton round after an issue with the fuel line potentially causing fires.
The Levorg gained its first win in the BTCC at Oulton Park in Round 10.
Turkington took a further 4 wins before the season ended and finished 4th in the drivers championship standings.
The Subaru idea sprung up when Jason Plato and one of his engineers were talking back in 2012 about a works Subaru team.
In Macau, he finished 13th and 8th in the two races.
In 2013, Turkington returned to the BTCC with WSR (now competing as eBay Motors).
He drove one of their three new BMW 125is.
He finished 5th in the 2013 Drivers' Championship after taking five race wins.
He finished 14th in the Drivers' Championship.
Turkington stayed with the team for the 2014 season, taking eight race wins and eventually winning his second BTCC Drivers' title.
After winning the championship with eBay Motors in 2014, Turkington switched to Team BMR for the 2015 season, driving alongside Jason Plato, Aron Smith and Warren Scott.
In 2016, Team BMR announced a change of car to the Subaru Levorg, and after months of testing entered it into the 2016 season.
For 2017, Turkington once again re-joined the outfit headed by Dick Bennetts; the source of his previous two championship victories.
