Autistic Man With ADHD Will Tackle 2024 Porsche Sprint Series

“We’re looking at applying some fresh thinking to motorsport data analytics,” said Bodo Mann, managing director and CEO of Auticon. “The team has already identified opportunities to enhance racing insights and add value to Ben’s on-track performance. This partnership is a fantastic opportunity to showcase autistic strengths in action, and we want to demonstrate the power of neurodiversity and how thinking differently can be an asset.”

Naturally, the study findings will be used to help further the careers of other autistic or neurodivergent racing drivers. Taylor’s entire season in the GT3 Cup Car will lead to terabytes of data that will inevitably help those who come after him.

Motorsport, in general, is becoming more accessible, starting with the famous Forza Motorsport series, which now allows blind people to drive. Earlier this year, a blind man also ran an 11.5-second quarter-mile in a Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock.
