🇱🇺 Alex Arkin Aka

Alex Arkin Aka is a professional racing driver competing primarily in GT World Challenge Europe. His Racer Rating of 4,696 places him among the professional tier; this means he is a competent driver working at the sharp end of strong national and international racing fields, though not yet at the elite level of outright race winners at the sport's very top. Across six seasons from 2021 to 2026, Aka has accumulated 71 starts without a win or podium finish, racing almost entirely for Tresor Attempto Racing in GT World Challenge Europe, with a brief three-race campaign in the Asian Le Mans Series in 2024. His average finishing position of P14.7 reflects consistent mid-field performance in fiercely competitive international GT racing.[1]

Aka's record against his most frequent rivals shows the competitive landscape he navigates. Against Charles Weerts, a four-time GT World Challenge Europe champion rated at elite professional level, Aka finished ahead on just 5 of 58 shared races. Similar patterns hold against other graded professionals: Benjamin Goethe, a Gold-rated driver, beat Aka in 35 of 57 encounters, while Raffaele Marciello, a Platinum-graded former Formula 3 European and double GT World Challenge Europe champion, prevailed in 40 of 48 races. Aka has nonetheless demonstrated occasional capability against stronger fields, notably finishing ahead of Franco Colapinto, Edoardo Mortara, and Broc Feeney once each, though these remain isolated results rather than indicators of sustained competitiveness at that tier. His more consistent record against drivers closer to his own level, such as Aurélien Panis and Patric Niederhauser, where he finished ahead in roughly 40 percent of shared starts, better describes where his pace typically sits.[2]

As a son of Attempto Racing team principal Arkin Aka, Alex has maintained his seat across multiple seasons in one of the championship's recurring outfits, though Attempto's fleet has not produced race wins. His ongoing participation in 2026 GT World Challenge Europe suggests he remains active in international GT competition, with recent headlines placing the championship in endurance events such as the 24 Hours of Spa in June 2026.
