Michael Ronald Meadows (born 11 September 1987 in Oxford) is a British professional racing driver and a two-time champion of the Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain. In addition, he claimed victory in the 2018 Blancpain GT Series Sprint Cup together with teammate Raffaele Marciello. Following his retirement from competitive racing in 2020, Meadows transitioned to a management role as team principal for the Argenti Motorsport squad competing in Formula 4.

Career

Meadows achieved overall titles in the Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain during the 2012 and 2013 seasons, consistently finishing within the top two positions for five consecutive years. Although he secured more race wins than champion Josh Webster in 2014, Meadows ultimately placed second by a margin of nine points due to Webster’s greater consistency. He again finished as runner-up in 2015, this time behind former British Formula Ford champion Daniel Cammish. Across a career spanning over ten years, Meadows amassed a total of 31 race victories.

His initial entry into professional racing came with the 2005 Formula BMW UK championship. Throughout his career, he has also competed in prestigious series such as the Porsche Supercup, International Formula Master, Blancpain Endurance Series, and the British GT Championship.

Personal life

Born in Oxford, Oxfordshire, Meadows currently lives in London. His father, Ron Meadows, holds the position of sporting director at Mercedes-AMG F1 and established the Argenti Kart Team in 2019.
