Born in Leicester Jelley was born in Leicester. He made the move into Formula Ford to the National Class of the British Formula 3 Championship for 2004, claiming three class victories. Both in 2006 and 2007,, he was a driver with Raikkonen Robertson Racing in British F3. After finishing second in the opening round of 2007 in 2007, he scored two wins and placed third overall. He competed in for the 2009 GP2 Asia Series season for the ART Grand Prix team.
Jelley changed to touring cars following the conclusion of his GP2 Asia campaign contesting the 2008 British Touring Car Championship with Team RAC as Colin Turkington’s teammate. The last GP2 Asia weekend clashed with the second BTCC event in the year at Rockingham that meant that he would be competing in a GP2 race at Dubai on Friday, as well as BTCC qualification at Rockingham on Saturday. The initial results were not very impressive and just one point from the first four meetings. However, performance improved over time with better points-scoring at each of the subsequent 3 races. at Silverstone the race was won by a seventh-place finish, however, after finishing on round 25 he fell during round 26 breaking his shoulder. However, he did take part in round 27, and finished in the top ten points. In the Brands Hatch season finale, the race was won by him but, as he stated to ITV4 that the team initially did not believe that he had run the fastest lap, and they attributed the P1 appearing in the display to an inaccuracy in timing. In the race , his gearbox was damaged, but he battled to get a couple of points in the final race. In 2009, he remained with Team RAC and showed he was able to benefit from years of experience by placing fourth (a personal best at the time) at the start of the race in Brands Hatch. The results continued to improve, and, at the halfway season, Jelley scored two second-place places and a third place during the final race of Croft to secure his first podium finish within the race. It was then followed by Rockingham with two wins , one in race one with a starting position of fourth, and another in race 3 from fourth.
Jelley remained in the series with the same team for 2011, this was a late change as he had initially agreed to drive in the 2011 Le Mans Series. Jelley took pole position for the season’s first two races at Brands Hatch, leading the first until a mistake (that he attributed to a slightly different braking performance of the new car) dropped him to third. He rectified this in the second event, winning from team mate Euan Hankey. Throughout the season Jelley fought with the two SAS backed cars of James Sutton and Michael Meadows, they went into the final meeting of the year tied on points. A fuel pick up problem in qualifying resulted in a frustrating 7th and 9th positions, Jelley managed to race to 4th place before slight contact with the rear of Meadows’s car resulted in a punctured radiator ending his championship chances. Over the year Jelley recorded 5 wins. Jelley’s overtaking performances through the year were praised by Autosport Magazine (17 Nov 2011) as he was seen to make more positions than any other driver.
