Chris Williamson is a British sim-racer form Nantwich, England and is the founder of the Nijo Racing team. He joined GPVWC in 2010 and has since competed in the Superleague, Supercup and Masters competitions. Chris was runner-up in the 2010 Supercup, narrowly losing out to Christoph Lichtenstein in the final round.

Before GPVWC

Having previous played racing games such as 'F1 World Grand Prix', 'TOCA 2' and 'Gran Tourismo', Chris entered the world of online racing during his time living in Japan. He started out in an amateur leagues such as 'GPROC' and 'ALT Challenge', which were organized at [www.gpro.net] and used the game 'F1 Challenge 99-02'. When these leagues switched to rFactor, Chris continued with them and also so-created a successful touring car league, 'TCC'.

Some members of these leagues took part in the GPVWC Meganes series in 2009 and they subsequently introduced Chris to the GPVWC in early 2010.

2010

Superleague

Chris drove for ST Racing in 2010, at first as a test driver, but later becoming a regular 2nd driver within the team. Despite a tough start to the season, he later scored points on several occasions and finished 14th overall.

Supercup

Chris spent the whole of the 2010 Supercup season at the newly formed PB Racing team. His consistent style earned him points in almost every race and meant that he remain a championship challenger right up to the final race where he had to settle for 2nd overall. During a successful season, he picked up his first and only GPVWC win at the Chinese Grand Prix and finished on the podium on 7 other occasions.
