Jason Plato

Jason Plato is arguably the most famous name in the BTCC and has been a front-runner ever since making his debut back in 1997.

Title winner in 2001 with Vauxhall, Plato then became the leading driver for SEAT during its time in the series but proved unable to add a second title to his resume despite coming close on more than one occasion.
