Early career
Karting
Stevenson mainly developed his karting career in the United Kingdom, racing in the various classes of the Super 1 National Kart Championships.[1]
Ginetta Junior Championship
Stevenson made his car racing debut in the winter series of the Ginetta Junior Championship in November 2018, before a full-time entry the following year with Richardson Racing.[2] He finished the season 6th overall with nine podiums, and 2nd in the rookie standings behind Zak O'Sullivan.[3][4]
Formula 4
In November 2019, following an assessment day at Silverstone, Stevenson won the inaugural F4 British Championship scholarship prize.[5][6] He subsequently signed with new team Argenti Motorsport, which took over reigning champions Double R Racing's cars, for 2020.[7] He started the year off with consistent points finishes, before a run of nine consecutive podiums halfway through the season propelled him to 3rd in the standings.[8] He achieved his first two wins in cars at Silverstone and Croft in the process.[9][10]
Euroformula Open
Though initially planning to race in the Formula Regional European Championship for Van Amersfoort Racing in 2021,[11] for which he prepared during the winter in Asian F3,[12] Stevenson ended up joining the team in the Euroformula Open instead.[13] He took two wins throughout the season on his way to 6th in the standings, and was crowned rookies' champion.[14][15]
Sportscar career
2022: Debut in GT3
Stevenson competed in the Gulf 12 Hours in January 2022, driving a Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo for 2 Seas Motorsport.[16] He finished fourth overall and third in his class, alongside gentleman drivers Ian Loggie and Morgan Tillbrook.[17] Stevenson gained praise after a competitive stint that saw him close in on platinum-rated factory driver Ben Barnicoat, in what was his professional sportscar racing debut.[18]
He then contested the GT World Challenge Europe for the AKKodis ASP Team, partnering Tommaso Mosca and Konstantin Tereshchenko in the Endurance Cup and Thomas Drouet in the Sprint Cup.[19][20] Having taken six podiums from his first seven races before racing at the historic Spa 24 Hours in late July, Stevenson finished runner-up in the Silver class of the Sprint Cup and ninth in the Endurance Cup.
2023: Step-up to the WEC
In 2023, Stevenson moved to Aston Martin Racing to make his debut in the FIA World Endurance Championship, driving for the TF Sport-operated D'station Racing team in the GTE Am class alongside Satoshi Hoshino and Tomonobu Fujii.[21][22] He finished 2nd in the last race of the FIA World Endurance Championship in the 8 hours of Bahrain.
He also notably finished 3rd in the Spa 24 Hours in the Pro-Am class in early July.
