PROFILE
ABOUT JOSH

Josh Files is an exciting young talent who began his career racing historics with his father. The father-son driver pairing achieved race wins in their first two years competing together, before Josh embarked on a title-winning rookie campaign in the 2010 Thoroughbred Sports Car Championship.

However, having discovered a natural aptitude behind the wheel of a racing car, Josh stepped up to the Renault UK Clio Cup – Britain’s premier one-make saloon car championship. In 2011, Josh landed a seat with the multiple championship-winning Team Pyro outfit. He achieved podium finishes and fastest laps to become 'Rookie of the Year' and continued building upon that success in 2012 with additional pole positions and top three results.

A supremely consistent and mature season followed in 2013 and, having notched up ten podium finishes Josh was crowned the 2013 Renault UK Clio Cup Champion, emulating British Touring Car stars Mat Jackson, Tom Onslow-Cole and Dave Newsham. In addition, Josh had a sensational maiden season in the Renault Eurocup Clio Championship that culminated with him winning the 2013 title at the first time of asking.

Since joining the TCR concept in 2016, Josh has become the only Double TCR champion. In the inaugural season of the ADAC TCR Germany Touring Car Championship in 2016, Josh went on to take the drivers’ title with a succession of impressive wins, pole positions and podiums. To add to that he went on to win the 2017 TCR Middle East championship with Honda, making him the only double TCR Champion of two different championships. 

Josh is the reigning 2017 ADAC TCR Germany Champion and is contesting the 2018 TCR Europe Championship with HELL ENERGY Racing Powered By KCMG in the new FK8 Honda Civic Type R.
