Martin Richard Whitmarsh (born 29 April 1958)[1] is a British businessman and Group CEO of the Aston Martin Performance Technologies team since 21 September 2021.[2] Whitmarsh is best known to motorsport insiders, media, and fans for his long and successful period at McLaren, for which he worked for 25 years (1989–2014) in various senior positions,[3] including group chief executive officer,[4] as well as Formula One Team Principal for six years (2008–2014).[5][6]
