Sean Nathan Thomas Walkinshaw (born 3 November 1993) is a British professional racing driver who currently competes in the Super Taikyu Series with Hitotsuyama Racing. He is the son of former Formula 1 team principal Tom Walkinshaw.

Super GT

Walkinshaw made his Super GT debut in 2017, driving for Autobacs Racing Team Aguri alongside teammate Shinichi Takagi. They secured fourth place overall, achieving one victory during the season. The next year, the duo finished as runners-up, claiming two wins but narrowly missing out on the championship to LEON Racing’s Naoya Gamou and Haruki Kurosawa. When ARTA transitioned to the Honda NSX GT3 for 2019, Walkinshaw was succeeded by Honda Junior driver Nirei Fukuzumi.

In 2019, Walkinshaw joined Team Thailand, sharing the car with Nattapong Horthongkum. He returned to Team Thailand for the last three rounds of the 2020 campaign, partnering with Mathias Beche, and completed his final Super GT season in 2021 alongside Giuliano Alesi. Throughout his time with Team Thailand, he did not manage to score championship points.

Super Taikyu

In 2023, Walkinshaw resumed racing in Japan by entering the Super Taikyu Series with Hitotsuyama Racing.
