Top Technician 2025 finalists revealed
The five Top Technician 2025 finalists have been selected after the semi finals at Delphi Academy in Warwick.
Contestants faced hands-on tasks designed to replicate genuine vehicle faults, from diesel and petrol issues to electric vehicle problems.
Many challenges included unexpected complications to test both technical knowledge and diagnostic process, all under the pressure of a 20-minute time limit.
Progressing to the final were David Weston of Kia UK, Matthew Deakin of Four Cross Garage, John Hall of John Hall Auto Electrician, Kristopher Williams of Fords of Winsford, and John Fountain.
Industry’s best
Top Technician head judge Ian Gillgrass said: “These technicians are among the very best in the industry. The semi-finals are designed to push them to their limits, testing practical skills and real-world problem-solving.
“Only those who combine knowledge with a structured process make it through to the final, where they’ll come up against an even tougher set of challenges.”
The Top Technician 2025 grand final will take place on 15 November at the Delphi Academy, when the technicians will be evaluated on technical knowledge, problem-solving, and diagnostic process.
