Geoff Richardson (born 26 August 1924, died 20 August 2007) was a British racing driver. Originally a mechanic who built his own cars (the RRA), he later went on to drive in Formula One for Bentley before going back to entering cars for himself. Following an accident at the 1954 Swiss Grand Prix, he continued to enter Bentleys from his hospital bed through Geoff Richardson Racing, but after an unsuccessful campaign in 1955 with Harry Schell, he stopped his involvement in motorsport.
