Oliver James Bearman (born 8 May 2005) is a British racing driver, currently competing in the FIA Formula 2 Championship for Prema Racing and serving as a reserve driver in Formula One for Ferrari and Haas.

Graduating from karting to junior formulae in 2020, Bearman won his first championship at the 2021 Italian F4 Championship, also winning the ADAC F4 Championship that year, both with Van Amersfoort Racing. Bearman then competed in FIA Formula 3 in 2022, finishing third in his rookie season with Prema Racing. He then progressed to Formula 2 in 2023, winning several races across two seasons.

A member of the Ferrari Driver Academy since 2022, Bearman is a reserve driver for both Ferrari and Haas in 2024, substituting for Carlos Sainz Jr. in Saudi Arabia—making his Formula One debut—and for Kevin Magnussen in Azerbaijan, scoring points finishes in both. He is set to race for Haas from 2025 onwards to partner Esteban Ocon.
