Before opting for a career in motor racing, Palmer trained as a physician at London's Guy's Hospital. He also worked as a junior physician at Cuckfield and Brighton hospitals. Palmer was active in Formula One between 1983 and 1989, and drove for [[Tyrrell Racing|Tyrrell]], [[Williams Grand Prix Engineering|Williams]], [[RAM Racing|RAM]], and [[Zakspeed]]. He won 14 [[List of Formula One World Drivers' Champions|Championship]] points from 83 starts.  He also raced a [[Group C]] Porsche in sports car events between 1983 and 1990, winning the [[1984 1000 km of Brands Hatch]] with co-driver [[Jan Lammers]] and taking second place at the [[1985 24 Hours of Le Mans]] with co-drivers [[James Weaver (racing driver)|James Weaver]] and [[Richard Lloyd (racing driver)|Richard Lloyd]]. 

Palmer helped develop the [[McLaren F1]] road car, and drove one to a new [[Production car speed record|speed record for production cars]]. He is the majority shareholder and Chief Executive of [[MotorSport Vision]] (MSV), a company that runs six UK motorsport circuits, the PalmerSport corporate driving event at Bedford Autodrome and several racing championships including [[British Superbike Championship|British Superbikes]] and [[GB3 Championship|GB3]].

==Racing career==
Jonathan Charles Palmer was born on 7 November 1956 in [[Lewisham]], London, England.<ref name="grandprix">{{cite web |title=Jonathan Palmer Profile - Drivers - GP Encyclopedia - F1 History |url=http://grandprix.com/gpe/drv-paljon.html |website=Grandprix.com |access-date=26 January 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170630054401/http://grandprix.com/gpe/drv-paljon.html |archive-date=30 June 2017}}</ref><ref name="espnuk" />

===Early career===
Following his education at [[Brighton College]], Palmer raced an [[Austin Healey Sprite]] and a [[Marcos (automobile)|Marcos]] in club events while he was a medical student at [[Guy's Hospital]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.driving.co.uk/news/interview/motor-jonathan-palmer-former-f1-driver-turned-circuit-owner/|title=Me and My Motor: Jonathan Palmer, former F1 driver turned circuit owner|date=27 April 2018|access-date=10 March 2020}}</ref> He went on to work as a doctor at Cuckfield and Brighton hospitals, and opted for a professional driving career after he had participated in [[Formula Ford]] from 1978 to 1980. He won the [[British Formula 3 Championship]] in 1981,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.palmersport.com/about-palmersport/|title=PalmerSport &#124; About PalmerSport &#124; The world's greatest driving event|date=20 November 2019|website=PalmerSport|access-date=10 March 2020|archive-date=20 January 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220120020855/https://www.palmersport.com/about-palmersport/|url-status=dead}}</ref> and landed a [[Williams F1|Williams]] Formula One test drive in 1982. The following year he won the [[European Formula Two Championship]], and the [[British Racing Drivers' Club]] awarded him their Gold Star.

===Formula One===
[[File:Zakspeed 841 Dr. Jonathan Palmer.jpg|thumb|right|Palmer driving for [[Zakspeed]] at the [[1985 German Grand Prix]]]]
Palmer joined [[Williams F1|Williams]] as a test driver for the 1982 and 1983 seasons whilst racing in F2, and made his Formula One debut at [[Brands Hatch]] on 25 September 1983, driving a [[Williams F1|Williams]] in the [[1983 European Grand Prix|European Grand Prix]]. This drive was a 'thank you' from [[Frank Williams (Formula One)|Frank Williams]] and [[Patrick Head]]. He finished 13th out of 26 starters. Moving to the Skoal Bandit [[RAM Racing|RAM]] March team in 1984, his six finishes yielded one 8th place, three 9th, one 10th, and one 13th. He joined [[Zakspeed]] in 1985, starting in eight races and retiring from all except the [[1985 Detroit Grand Prix]], where he finished 11th. Sixteen starts with the same team in 1986 resulted in eight retirements and a best finish of 8th in Detroit. At his [[1986 British Grand Prix|home race]] at Brands Hatch that year, Palmer used his qualified [[general practitioner]] skills to assist the extrication of [[Équipe Ligier|Ligier]] driver [[Jacques Laffite]] after Laffite suffered a career-ending crash on the opening lap.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.racefans.net/2016/07/13/mansell-wins-piquets-car/|title=Mansell wins in Piquet’s car|website=racefans.net|first=Keith|last=Collantine|date=13 July 2016|accessdate=13 August 2024}}</ref>

In 1987, Palmer talked to [[McLaren]] team principal and co-owner [[Ron Dennis]] about becoming the team's No. 2 driver to double World Champion [[Alain Prost]]. Dennis ultimately signed [[Stefan Johansson]], and Palmer joined Tyrrell a week before the season's opening race in [[1987 Brazilian Grand Prix|Brazil]]. Although outpaced by its turbocharged competitors, Tyrrell's naturally-aspirated Cosworth-powered car proved reliable, and it was nimble on tighter circuits. Palmer won championship points in three races, and it was in [[1987 Australian Grand Prix|Australia]] that he achieved his career-best fourth-place finish. He also won the [[Jim Clark Cup]], a championship for drivers of [[normally aspirated engine|normally aspirated]] cars. He stayed with Tyrrell for the next two seasons, during which his best results were two 5th-place finishes and three 6th. At the end of 1989 he signed as McLaren's test driver.

===Sportscars===
[[File:Jonathan Palmer Ford RS200 Brands Hatch 1990 001.jpg|thumb|right|Palmer driving a [[Ford RS200]] at [[Brands Hatch]] in 1990.]]
Between 1983 and 1990 Palmer competed in the [[World Sportscar Championship]] at the wheel of a Group C Porsche. With co-driver [[Jan Lammers]] he won the [[1984 1000 km of Brands Hatch]]. At Le Mans, his best result from five starts was second place in [[1985 24 Hours of Le Mans|1985]], with co-drivers [[James Weaver (racing driver)|James Weaver]] and [[Richard Lloyd (racing driver)|Richard Lloyd]].

===Post F1===
In 1991 Palmer came seventh in the [[British Touring Car Championship]], driving a [[Prodrive]] [[BMW]]. Also that year he became a pit lane reporter for the [[BBC]] F1 commentary team. Following [[James Hunt]]'s death from a heart attack after the [[1993 Canadian Grand Prix]], Palmer joined the BBC commentary box alongside [[Murray Walker]]. At the end of 1996 the [[BBC]] lost the rights to broadcast F1, and in 1997 Palmer joined the [[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation|CBC]] for its annual commentary on the [[Grand Prix of Canada]].

===Road car development===
Palmer's work with McLaren included development of the [[McLaren F1]] road car, and he drove one to a record-breaking 231&nbsp;mph at the [[Nardò Ring|Nardo]] test track.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/Drives/Search-Results/First-drives/McLaren-F1-drive-June-1994-Roger-Bell/|title=McLaren F1 review|publisher=[[Car (magazine)|Car]]|access-date=13 July 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121109101728/http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/Drives/Search-Results/First-drives/McLaren-F1-drive-June-1994-Roger-Bell/|archive-date=9 November 2012}}</ref>

==Business career==
[[PalmerSport]] was founded in 1991 to run corporate hospitality motorsport events. This was initially run from the Bruntingthorpe airfield in Leicestershire before the lease was acquired to develop the site now known as [[Bedford Autodrome]].

Palmer opened the venue in 1999 as four separate circuits with a total of six miles of track, to become the permanent home for PalmerSport. The venue is also used for track days.

Palmer launched the [[Formula Palmer Audi]] Championship in 1998 as a less costly alternative to [[Formula 3]]. Inaugural champion [[Justin Wilson (racing driver)|Justin Wilson]] went on to win the [[Formula 3000]] championship. With Palmer managing his career, an innovative share issue in Wilson helped him secure a Formula One drive with [[Minardi]].

In 2004, Palmer, John Britten, and [[Sir Peter Ogden]] acquired the [[Brands Hatch]], [[Oulton Park]], [[Snetterton Motor Racing Circuit|Snetterton]] and [[Cadwell Park]] circuits from [[Octagon (sports agency)|Octagon]], under the umbrella of [[MotorSport Vision]] (MSV).<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/5581092.palmer-buys-up-four-tracks/|title=Palmer buys up four tracks|website=Daily Echo|access-date=10 March 2020}}</ref> The company has turned around the fortunes of each circuit, and implemented a programme of improvements at each venue to develop better facilities for spectators and circuit users. Snetterton in particular has been revitalised under MSV ownership, with the circuit undergoing a near total redesign in 2011, with several new corners allowing for three different circuit configurations, and the addition of large spectator viewing areas.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.crash.net/bsb/news/167470/1/agostini-and-walker-get-snetterton-tribute|title=Agostini and Walker get Snetterton tribute|date=17 March 2011|website=Crash.net|access-date=10 March 2020}}</ref>

The company, with Palmer as Chief Executive, organised the [[Formula Palmer Audi]] Championship, acquired the commercial rights for the [[British Superbike Championship]], and secured the right to operate the [[FIA Formula Two Championship (2009–2012)|FIA Formula Two Championship]] from 2009 to 2012. It now runs the [[GB3 Championship|GB3]] and GB4 Championships, as well as several other club series and championships under the MSVR banner.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.palmersport.com/about-jonathan-palmer.aspx|title=PalmerSport at Bedford Autodrome - The world's best corporate hospitality driving event|website=www.palmersport.com|access-date=5 November 2018|archive-date=5 November 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181105160540/http://www.palmersport.com/about-jonathan-palmer.aspx|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2009, MSV acquired the freehold of 800 acres of the Bedford Autodrome site and opened Bedford Aerodrome as a CAA licensed airfield in 2010.

MSV completed the freehold purchase of a substantial former military airbase near [[Laon]] in north-east [[France]] in 2015, which is planned to be developed into a major international motorsports complex.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.msv.com/9188.aspx|title=MSV acquires former airbase in France for European expansion|website=news.msv.com|access-date=5 November 2018|archive-date=25 March 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170325030200/http://news.msv.com/9188.aspx|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2017 MSV acquired the [[Donington Park]] motor racing circuit,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.autosport.com/national/news/127717/donington-taken-over-by-palmer-msv|title=Donington Park taken over by Jonathan Palmer's MotorSport Vision|first=Jack|last=Cozens|website=Autosport.com|access-date=10 March 2020}}</ref> and implemented a multi-million pound program of improvements at the East Midlands track<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester-news/donington-park-multi-million-pound-959610|title=Donington Park to get multi-million pound makeover|first=Robin|last=Johnson|date=21 December 2017|website=leicestermercury.co.uk|access-date=10 March 2020}}</ref> including a new bar, cafe and restaurant, a new circuit office, extensive resurfacing of paddock areas and internal roads and a new grandstand with views of the track.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/jonathan-palmer-f1-racer-britains-top-circuit-boss|title=Jonathan Palmer: from F1 racer to Britain's top circuit boss &#124; Autocar|website=www.autocar.co.uk|access-date=10 March 2020}}</ref>

On 30 September 2022 it was announced that MSV won the bid for purchasing Circuito de Navarra in northern Spain. MSV has since completed the first phase of its programme of improvements involving a complete overhaul of the race control complex. This included new screens and upgraded CCTV technology, along with a complete exterior redecoration of the race control tower and main pit buildings, including all the garage doors. This exterior aesthetic overhaul has extended beyond that area too, elevating the FIA Grade 1T and Grade 2 circuit's presentation to match its status as one of Spain's best motorsport venues.

Palmer also has two daughters: Emily, an accountant, and Alice, a professional equestrian showjumper.
