Ferdinand Stuck competed in endurance racing at the highest level of amateur competition, rated as a professional-level driver in the FIA's Silver category for sportscar racing. His career on record spans two seasons between 2021 and 2022, during which he made two starts in the Nürburgring 24 Hours for True Racing. He won the 2021 running of the event and finished on the podium in both attempts, posting an average finishing position of first place across his classified starts.[1]
Stuck's brief record shows him competitive against drivers substantially stronger than his own rating suggests. He finished ahead of Andy Soucek, an FIA Platinum-graded professional and a front-runner in endurance racing; Christoph Breuer, a much stronger driver rated above 4,500; and Tim Heinemann, an FIA Gold-graded professional. These were single results rather than sustained patterns, but they demonstrate that Stuck performed at or above the level expected in a team context at one of endurance racing's marquee events. His retirement followed the 2022 season.[2]
