After almost 2 decades of successful racing as a privateer team, Bob Berridge realised that there was an untapped market for an extremely high-standard, complete solutions provider for private race car owners. As a result, BBM Sport was born in late 2017 in order to service this small but highly focused market.
BBM opened up in Daventry at the beginning of 2018 in a 15,000sq. ft facility, and has gone from strength to strength with 2 further expansions to the complex, resulting in around 35,000sq. ft of facility.
Being a private racer himself, Berridge took on board aspects from his personal experiences as a driver, identified areas where the entire experience could be improved, and set about the mammoth task of creating the ultimate, exclusive red-carpet all-in-one experience for private racers.

BBM Sport is famous for our Peugeot Sport links with our management of the Peugeot Le Mans Prototypes, the 908 V12 and 90X V8, which have seen massive success with their resurgence in the last 4 years. Additionally, our acquisition of the Paulo Catone designed BR Engineering BR01 cars (5 chassis) led to another series of race-winning events, with our Peugeots and BRs dominating the Masters Endurance Legends podiums from 2018 to present day.
As for our bespoke work, we continue to work on some very interesting and specialised client requirements, mainaining the client's anonymity and confidentiality as required.
We are also one of very few teams that has an in-house motorsport engineering department, ensuring that your telemetry data and bridges between the mechanical and the technological are always available and supported. You can buy a race car from many places, but what you can’t get is the ongoing support, management, technology, coaching, logistics and world-class engineering, making your racing career well… easy.
With over a century of combined technical experience, and a proven track record of achieving podium after podium, we are more than satisfied that we can rise to whatever challenge comes our way... and win!
