William Kenneth "Ken" Richardson (August 21, 1911 in Bourne, Lincolnshire - June 27, 1997 in Bourne, Lincolnshire) was a British racing and test / development driver from England.

Richardson was the main development driver on the BRM V16 project in the early 1950s, and he was entered by the team to drive one of the V16s in the 1951 Italian Grand Prix. He qualified 9th, but was not allowed to start when it emerged that he did not possess the correct racing licence. He did not make another attempt at entering a World Championship Formula One race.
