Overview

Lorenz started sim racing at the end of 2023, initially driven by the desire to have fun, improve every lap, and prove what he could do behind the wheel. His passion for racing was sparked by the Gran Turismo movie, which introduced him to the world of sim racing and ultimately inspired him to pursue racing more seriously.
 

Despite being relatively new to competitive sim racing, Lorenz has already made his mark, recording numerous victories and securing a podium in a streamed Super Formula Top Split race. His ambitions extend well beyond the simulator, with his ultimate goal being to make the transition into real racing and build a professional motorsport career.
 

Lorenz is already gaining valuable real-world experience behind the wheel. He started racing motocross at just two years old and continued competing on two wheels until the age of eight, giving him an early introduction to racing, competition. He currently competes in an IAME X30 kart in the Ostdeutscher ADAC Kart Cup (OAKC), where he finished 2nd overall in the Junior class last season, including a race victory and multiple podium finishes. After moving up to the Senior class this year, he has continued to impress, scoring a podium and currently sitting 4th in the championship with one round remaining.

​

On the simulator, Lorenz particularly enjoys formula cars, with Super Formula and F4 among his favourites, while also enjoying the challenge of GTP and GT3 machinery. His favourite circuits include Zandvoort, Hockenheim and Spa, although he enjoys virtually any track once he has had enough time to adapt.
 

Lorenz looks up to Kimi Antonelli and Lando Norris, with Mercedes being his favourite team. His long-term ambition is clear: to turn his passion for racing into a professional career and reach the highest levels of motorsport.
 

And while he may be comfortable at the sharp end of a racing grid, there is one area where his talents apparently disappear completely: pretty much any video game that isn't a racing simulator.
