Chris Stockton (born 5 April 1969) is a current British Touring Car Championship driver.
He made his debut in the series behind the wheel of a BTC Racing Lexus IS200 at Brands Hatch on 24 September 2006, alongside then team-mate Darren Dowling. He completed the last 2 meetings of the 2006 season.
In 2007 he continued with the BTC Racing team and was joined by Nick Leason in the second car. Stockton suffered a disappointing year with mechanical problems hindering the team's progress.
Stockton continues in the BTC Racing entry in 2008.[1] His team-mate is the successful truck racer Stuart Oliver [1]. From round 3 the team switched to ex-Motorbase Performance SEAT Toledos. Despite having never previously driven in a front-wheel-drive racing car, Stockton finished 8th in race 2, his best ever finish - though he was helped by the intermittently wet conditions hampering the BMWs.
He is also a former top-level National Hunt jockey.[2] His wife Polly is a member of the British Class Performance squad in horse riding.
