🇮🇹 Edoardo Bugane

Bugane is an entry-level professional racing in a multiclass national endurance series. He competes in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie and Nürburgring 24 Hours, both held at the Nürburgring in Germany, driving shared BMW M240i Racing and Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport cars for Adrenalin Motorsport Team Mainhattan Wheels. He holds an FIA Bronze grade, the amateur classification within endurance racing.[1]

Across ten seasons from 2016 to 2026, Bugane has taken six wins and 24 podiums from 51 starts in the indexed series. He has won the 2026 Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie championship in his class, though the season remains in progress with further rounds to come. The bulk of his racing has been in the Langstrecken-Serie, where he has competed since 2016 and holds all his wins and most podiums. He has also started the Nürburgring 24 Hours twice.[2]

The field at the Nürburgring series includes established professionals such as Charles Weerts, a four-time GT World Challenge Europe champion and Platinum-graded driver, though Bugane has finished ahead of him once. Among his regular opponents are Ranko Mijatovic, a recent BMW M240i champion who rates as Silver-graded and with whom Bugane is closely matched, and Daniel Zils, a multiple-time Langstrecken-Serie class champion who typically finishes ahead of him in shared competition. Bugane's racing has been primarily with Adranalin Motorsport Team Mainhattan Wheels throughout his career.
