James Roger Green (born 14 June 1982) is a professional racing driver from the United Kingdom. His most recent competition was with Audi Sport Team Rosberg during the 2020 DTM season, where he achieved three podium finishes and ended the season ranked eighth overall.
Early career
Hailing from Leicester, Green initiated his motorsport journey at the age of 10 by participating in BriSCA Ministox, capturing the British Championship title in his very first year. He then progressed to karting, securing second place in the Junior TKM championship in 1996.
In 1997, Green won the Junior ICA Winter Series and was runner-up in the McLaren Mercedes Champions of the Future competition. He claimed victory in the Formula A Winter Series in 2000 and finished as runner-up in British Formula A the following year. Concurrently, he competed in the European Formula A championship between 2000 and 2001, where he earned two race wins.
Formula Renault
Green's debut season in single-seater racing was the British Formula Renault Winter Series in 2001, where his best result was a second-place finish. In 2002, driving for Fortec Racing in the British Formula Renault championship, he secured two wins and finished second overall. Additionally, he made a one-time appearance in the Formula Renault Eurocup. He concluded his tenure in Formula Renault by winning the Asian Formula Renault Challenge at Macau in November 2002.
Formula 3
In 2003, Green stepped up to compete in the British Formula 3 championship with Carlin Motorsport, finishing as runner-up after winning four races. That year also marked his debut in the Formula Three Euroseries, where he participated in three rounds for Team Kolles and one round for ASM Formule 3.
Supported by Mercedes-Benz in 2004, Green completed his first full season in the Euroseries with ASM, achieving seven victories, six pole positions, and accumulating 139 points to secure the championship crown.
DTM
For the 2005 season, Mercedes assigned Green to drive a 2004 C-class car for Persson Motorsport in the DTM. He earned two pole positions, finished sixth in his debut race, and concluded the season sixth overall with a total of 29 points.
In 2006, Green was promoted to the factory Mercedes-AMG team managed by H.W.A. GmbH, racing alongside Bernd Schneider and Mika Häkkinen. He claimed four pole positions and two runner-up finishes, ending fifth overall with 31 points. The following year, he recorded his first DTM wins by taking victory in the last two rounds of the season. Despite winning twice again in 2008, he was assigned a year-old car to make room for reigning champion Gary Paffett, yet still managed to win round four at the Norisring.
