🇩🇪 Andreas Winkler

Andreas Winkler is a competitive amateur racing in German national endurance championships. He competes in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie and the Nürburgring 24 Hours, both multiclass events run at the Nürburgring where amateur and professional drivers share the same grid. He races shared-car endurance events for Adrenalin Motorsport Team Mainhattan Wheels, driving BMW M240i Racing cars, BMW one-make cup machinery, and turbocharged production-based cars across the various classes.[1]

Winkler has made 27 starts over 13 seasons from 2010 to 2024, taking two podium finishes. He scored one podium in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie across 25 starts and one in the Nürburgring 24 Hours from two appearances. His record places him in a regular field that includes both entry-level professionals and semi-professional competitors. He typically finishes behind Yannick Fübrich, a FIA Silver-graded entry-level professional and multiple champion in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie, though he has run closely matched with David Griessner, another regular FIA Silver-graded semi-professional on the same circuits. Among his finishes is one ahead of Francois Perrodo and one ahead of Matthieu Vaxiviere, both established professionals with extensive European endurance racing credentials and WEC championships to their names.[2]
