Taylor Barnard became the youngest driver in Formula E history at just 19 years old. The Brit then became the youngest points scorer in Berlin. With a handful of substitute drives, he now takes a full-time drive with NEOM McLaren in Season 11.

Barnard, from Norwich, England, entered single-seater racing in 2020. Since then, he has become the 2022 ADAC Formula 4 runner-up and the 2023 Formula Regional Middle East Championship runner-up. In 2023, during his debut season in FIA Formula 3, he took his maiden victory in the championship at Spa-Francorchamps and finished the season 10th in the Drivers’ standings. Moving up to Formula 2 for the 2024 season, the young Brit showcased his street circuit skills with a Sprint Race victory in Monaco.

Taylor got his first taste of Formula E racing in October 2023, having driven for the team as a rookie driver during the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship’s Valencia Pre-Season Test. Since then, he’s become an integral part of the team in his role as Reserve and Development Driver for NEOM McLaren.

Rookie Barnard debuted in the Monaco E-Prix Round 8, having last turned a wheel a fortnight prior in Misano's Rookie Free Practice session — in which he finished top. Stepping up at the final hour after an injury to Sam Bird was a huge learning curve for the young Brit, but he ended the race in 14th place, gaining eight places in the process and finishing ahead of his teammate.

Barnard was called up to replace Bird again in Berlin. Showcasing his abilities in that famous papaya again, he scored points in both legs of the double-header, finishing 10th and eighth in the German capital.

These performances have seen NEOM McLaren offer Barnard a full-time drive, and he is stepping up to join Sam Bird for Season 11.
