Stuart Peter White (born 30 September 2001) is a South African racing driver set to compete in International GT Open for Into Africa Racing by Dragon.
Career White began karting in 2006, competing until 2016. Primarily racing in South Africa in his youth, he won the South African Karting Championship in Mini Rok and Maxterino 60cc in 2013, and the Junior Rok title in 2015. Internationally, White most notably finished second in the Junior class of the 2015 ROK Cup International Final, before finishing third in the following year's edition.
After making his single-seater debut in the South African National Formula 1600 Championship in 2016, White remained in the series full-time for the following year, as well as racing in the French F4 Championship. In the former, White scored three wins en route to runner-up honors in points, whereas in the latter, he took a lone win at Magny-Cours and three other podiums to end the year eighth in points.
Continuing in the South African Formula 1600 Championship for 2018, White scored eight wins and seven further podiums to clinch the series title at the end of the year, earning him an invite to the Mazda Road to Indy Shootout at the end of the year. During 2018, White also returned to the French F4 Championship, competing in the first three rounds and taking a win in race three at Spa. Returning to the latter for 2019 with support from Sauber Motorsport, White took four podiums, with a best result of second in race one at Spa, as he ended his tenure in single-seaters with a ninth-place points finish.
Following a year on the sidelines, White joined Bentley-fielding CMR for his debut in sportscar competition in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup. After scoring a best overall result of 28th at the Nürburgring, White returned to the series with Emil Frey Racing in 2022, as a member of Lamborghini's GT3 Junior Driver Programme. In his sophomore season in the series, White scored a Silver Cup win at the Hockenheimring and two other class podiums to secure a third-place points finish in class.
In 2023, White joined Ferrari-affiliated AF Corse alongside Jean-Luc D'Auria to race in the Italian GT Sprint Championship, in which he scored a lone win at Misano to finish the season fourth in the GT3 standings. In parallel, White also raced in the South African Endurance Series for Into Africa Racing, winning two out of the five races but lost out on the title after retiring at the 9 Hours of Kyalami. The following year, White returned to the latter series with the same team, winning at Kyalami to secure his first series title. Continuing in the series for 2025, White won four of the six races to clinch his second consecutive series title. During 2025, White also raced for the team in one-off races in Creventic-organized series, before remaining with the team to race in the final two rounds of the 2025–26 24H Series Middle East. In those two races, White scored a best result of third overall at the 2026 6 Hours of Abu Dhabi.
For 2026, White remained with Into Africa Racing by Dragon to race in select races of the International GT Open season.
