Charlie Hart (born 26 August 2008) is a British racing driver who competes in the GT4 European Series for Elite Motorsport with Entire Race Engineering.
Personal life Hart is the son of Chris Hart, a former racing driver.
Career Hart began testing karts at the age of six with Sam Pollitt Racing, before making his competitive debut two years later. During his karting career, Hart most notably finished sixth in the 2022 British Kart Championships' Junior Max standings, which gave him an invitation to the RMC Grand Finals.
Towards the end of 2022, Hart made his car racing debut for Elite Motorsport in the Ginetta Junior Winter Series. Staying with Elite for the main Ginetta Junior Championship in 2023, Hart finished second on debut at Oulton Park, before taking three other podiums en route to a seventh-place points finish. Continuing with Elite through 2024, Hart won at Silverstone and Brands Hatch, as well as scoring ten other podiums to end the year third overall.
In 2025, Hart stepped up to GT4 competition, joining RAFA Racing by Race Lab to drive a McLaren Artura GT4 in the GT4 Winter Series and GT4 European Series alongside Callum Davies. In the former, Hart took wins at Algarve and Barcelona to end the winter third in the Pro standings. In the latter, he scored a lone podium at Barcelona to end the year 10th among the Silver Cup entrants. Reuniting with Elite Motorsport for 2026, Hart began the year with two wins on a one-off outing in the GT4 Winter Series at Barcelona. Hart then linked up with McKenzy Cresswell for his second season in the GT4 European Series, as a new member of the Elite McLaren Talent Pathway. After taking pole at Spa and finishing second in both races, Hart broke through at Misano to clinch his maiden series win in race one.
