Motorsport is in Matt Campbell’s blood: His grandfather Bill was involved in the development of the local racetrack Morgan Park Raceway in Queensland, Australia. So, it was only natural for Matt to develop his driving skill in his childhood years.
At 14-years-old, he took his leave from his home racetrack to the Formula Ford. After that, at the end of 2013, Matt Campbell entered the cockpit of a Porsche race car for the first time. A connection was born from that very first moment and after three years in various Porsche one-make series, Campbell was chosen as Porsche Junior driver. Another year later, he became a Porsche Young Professional Driver.
For the Australian, being a factory driver for the Porsche Penske Motorsport Team is filled with highlights: beside his motorsport experience, his hobbies travelling and sim racing are just the right fit.
Porsche factory driver: Matt Campbell.
My goal? Winning at the top level of prototype and endurance racing.
His will to win is indisputable: Matt Campbell has already won against far more experienced drivers and in less powerful vehicles. With the Porsche Penske Motorsport Team, he is ready to give his all.
