Barthez is a professional endurance racing driver, graded FIA Bronze, who raced shared-car GT and prototype machinery in multiclass and single-class championships. His indexed career spans eight starts across WEC and GT World Challenge Europe between 2014 and 2020, primarily with Panis Barthez Competition in WEC and Akka ASP Team in GT World Challenge Europe.[1]
His record in WEC included three starts in the LMGTE Am and LMP2 classes between 2014 and 2017, finishing 28th in the championship standings in his final season. In GT World Challenge Europe he made five starts for Akka ASP Team across 2019 and 2020. Against the regular opponents he faced most often, Mikhail Aleshin and Romain Dumas, both established professionals graded Platinum, he typically finished behind them. He finished ahead of Laurens Vanthoor, a Platinum-graded professional and multiple champion across IMSA and WEC, once, and ahead of Jake Dennis, a Platinum-graded professional and 2023 Formula E champion, once.[2]
Barthez raced in fields mixing amateurs and semi-professionals with established professionals. His sparse record against established Platinum-graded drivers shows him outmatched in regular competition, though occasional finishes ahead of drivers of considerably higher standing suggest competitive moments within those shared-car environments.
