Elevate your motorsport journey!

Paul has over 25 years of experience working in motorsport as a Performance Coach.

He started back in 1996 coaching drivers in Formula 3000 and quickly progressed into the top flight of Formula 1, coaching drivers from various teams such as Williams, McLaren and Jordan. Over the years, Paul has worked with drivers from various disciplines, including F3, F4, Le Mans, Nippon GT, BTTC, British GT, Ferrari World Challenge, British Superbikes and Moto Cross.

Notable clients have included Juan Pablo Montoya, Nick Heidfeld, Ralph Firman, Bruno Junquiera, Darren Turner, David Leslie, and the BSB Morello Racing Team.

To cope with the demand and the ever-increasing needs of drivers, Paul grew his team. Gridshark now offers fitness, performance nutrition, mindset, sports psychology, physiotherapy, and sports therapy coaches to its arsenal. Gridhark is truly the one-stop resource for everything related to human performance.

Paul and his team now focus on coaching motorsport talent in an array of championships and, in the past couple of years, have helped drivers win World, Vice World, Vice European and multiple British Championship Titles, including over 200 podiums!

Gridshark’s current driver portfolio includes drivers from BTCC, British GT, Ferrari World Challenge, Porsche Carrera GB, JCW Mini Challenge, Radicals, European Moto X, and Karting.
