Jonathan Aberdein (born 14 February 1998) is a professional racing driver from South Africa.

Aberdein took part in the FIA Formula 3 European Championship representing Motopark. Additionally, he competed in ADAC Formula 4 during the 2016 and 2017 seasons and achieved a commanding victory in the 2016–17 Formula 4 UAE Championship.

He is the son of Chris Aberdein, who was a factory driver for Audi and Porsche in South Africa throughout the 1990s.

2021

During the 2021 season, Aberdein raced in the LMP2 category of the European Le Mans Series with United Autosports, teaming up with Tom Gamble and Philip Hanson. The trio earned four podium finishes, including a victory at the final round held at the Algarve in Portugal, ultimately securing second place in the championship standings. That same year, Aberdein participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans alongside teammates Nico Jamin and Manuel Maldonado. Unfortunately, their race was cut short following a collision involving their vehicle and another United Autosports car.

2022

In 2022, Aberdein joined forces with Ed Jones and Oliver Rasmussen to compete for Jota Sport in the World Endurance Championship. After finishing fifth at Sebring, their team retired from the event at Spa-Francorchamps. They bounced back by achieving a third-place finish in their class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, sharing the podium with their sister car that won the category. Aberdein, Jones, and Rasmussen secured another third-place result at the penultimate round held at Fuji, concluding the season ranked sixth in the team championship.

2023

For the 2023 season, Aberdein committed to a full campaign in the ELMS, competing in LMP2 with Inter Europol Competition. He partnered with teammates Olli Caldwell and Rui Andrade aboard the team's #43 entry.
