Warren Hughes is a driver widely regarded as one of the very best of his generation. He has even been described as "the best driver outside of F1" by a racing journalist. He became the most statistically dominant British Formula Ford champion of all time, taking 19 wins from 24 starts in the category in 1990, a start-to-win ratio that even eclipsed that of Ayrton Senna, set nine years earlier.

Warren has proved to be a winner in every category in which he has raced - and that's a lot of categories; Formula Ford, Formula 3, Formula 3000, Touring Cars, GT cars and Prototypes. 

But, now in his 30s, Warren is no longer chasing the Grand Prix dream. Instead he sees his future as a top international racer in Sportscar racing. With four sensational performances in the Le Mans 24 Hour race, the highlight being a class victory and lap record in 2005, it is a path he has well and truly established.

He now has a wide range of experience which has seen him involved in many new sportscar projects that have benefited heavily from his set-up skills. He has also shown his pedigree by slotting seamlessly in to well established teams when the opportunity has arisen. His speed, technical skill and the ability to be a true team player has held him in good stead and he has proved to be a huge asset to the teams he's driven for. Warren's ability to adapt to any category and quickly become a winner is getting recognition.

In 2006, Warren teamed up with former Grand Prix drivers, Eddie Cheever and Stefan Johansson in the Daytona 24 Hour race. Meanwhile in Europe, after leading the LMP2 category in the Le Mans 24 hour race, Warren finished his season winning the final two rounds of the GT2 class in the Le Mans Series.

For 2007 Warren returned to the prototype arena full time after signing with Embassy Racing to race their LMP2 Radical in the Le Mans Series. He also competed in and once again led the LMP2 class of the Le Mans 24 hour race with Team ASM.
