Robert "Bob" Evans (born June 11, 1947 in Waddington, Lincolnshire) is a British former racing driver from England. He participated in 11 World Championship Formula One Grands Prix, debuting on March 1, 1975. He scored no championship points. He also competed in numerous non-Championship Formula One races.

Evans followed the usual route through to Formula One, via Formula Ford, Formula 3 and Formula 5000 where he was British champion in 1974. After a season with the struggling BRM team in 1975, Evans tested and occasionally raced for Lotus the following year. He subsequently drove a Brabham for RAM in the 1976 British Grand Prix, before he moved to the Aurora F1 Championship in the late 1970s.
