Denis Dupont holds the FIA Silver classification for sportscar and endurance racing, a professional-level grade typically held by drivers early in their career or not yet at the full-professional standard. His Racer Rating of 4,374 places him in the professional band; he is a national championship front-runner and a sharp competitor in pro-am and manufacturer-backed fields, beating semi-professional drivers comfortably but not yet operating consistently at the elite level. Across seven seasons from 2019 to 2026, Dupont has accumulated 59 starts with 4 wins and 15 podiums, and he won the 2025 championship in the series that has dominated his record: the IMSA Pilot Challenge, where he has raced 53 times for Bryan Herta Autosport with Curb Agajanian.[1]
Within the Pilot Challenge field, Dupont shows a mixed record against the drivers who have been his constant rivals. Against Harry Gottsacker, a professional-level Silver-graded rival and single-time champion, Dupont finished ahead in only 16 of 53 shared races; against Mason Filippi, another Silver professional, the record was 22 ahead and 30 behind across 52 races. His head-to-head with Mark Wilkins, a Gold-graded former champion, split almost evenly at 25 ahead and 27 behind over 52 races. Against Tyler Gonzalez, a Silver-graded champion, Dupont finished ahead 18 times but behind 28 times in 46 races, suggesting a disadvantage in direct competition with the strongest rivals in his regular field. His average finish across all starts sits at seventh place, reflecting consistent mid-pack performance in professional-level fields.[2]
Dupont has occasionally run against drivers of much greater standing: he finished ahead of Katsumasa Chiyo, a Gold-graded professional; Jake Dennis, a Platinum-graded former IndyCar and Formula E champion; and Tsugio Matsuda, another Platinum-graded world-class sportscar driver. These remain isolated results from endurance races and do not form a pattern of sustained competition at that level. His career consists primarily of IMSA Pilot Challenge racing, with limited forays into GT World Challenge Europe, other endurance sportscar championships, and the Nรผrburgring 24 Hours. As of mid-2026, Dupont remains active in Pilot Challenge competition and is pursuing additional four-hour race wins after securing the 2025 championship.
