Gerald is a colleague of Fletcher that visited Radiator Springs in his debut appearance, Cars: The Video Game. He is a British race car with a shy personality, usually depending on Fletcher to speak for him.

History

Cars: The Video Game

In Cars: The Video Game, Gerald and Fletcher are awaiting Lightning McQueen's arrival at Flo's V8 Cafe. Halfway through their discussion with McQueen, two Mexican cars named El Guapo and Papo show up to join in the competition. While Fletcher does most of the talking, Gerald appears to side with Fletcher.

Gerald can later be found at Flo's V8 Cafe not too long after Lightning returns from hiss first Piston Cup race, striking up a competition between him and Fletcher, El Guapo and Papo. They get into an argument about who has better rims, with Gerald appearing to side with Fletcher. He then competes in a race through the desert area east of the courthouse.

He is not seen again until Radiator Springs GP, where he is one of the competitors alongside Lightning and Chick.

Cars: Mater-National Championship

In Cars: Mater-National Championship, Gerald appears as a minor character that first appears as an opponent in the North Willy's Butte race. He is not involved in the cutscene, so it is presumed that he was recruited to join the race.

He can later be found as a competitor in Ornament Valley Airport, where he is, once again, not featured in the cutscene. He can also be found as a competitor in the final race of the game, Canyon Run.
