Born in Crewe, England on il 6 March 2005, Tom Manley is one of the most promising rookies on the grid this year. He began sim racing in 2022 and immediately demonstrated he was far more than just another rookie, with strong showings in F1 Esports.

Tom joined Oracle Red Bull Racing Esports in 2022 as the youngest sim racer and he made his mark. He took the title in the 2022 F1 Esports Challengers, thrashing the opposition, winning no fewer than 9 of the 12 races, leaving his rivals with the crumbs. It was a strong statement which opened the doors to the F1 Esports Pro Exhibition where Tom continued to compete as one of the best new sim-racers in the world.
