Gregor Foitek was an established professional competing in single-seater racing across International Formula 3000 and Formula 1 between 1986 and 1990. He raced for GA Motorsports in Formula 3000, where he took one win from 18 starts, and drove for Onyx in Formula 1, accumulating 7 starts across the 1990 season.[1]
Foitek's Formula 3000 campaign ran from 1986 to 1988 in a field mixing amateurs, semi-professionals and graded professionals. His single victory came within a competitive field; he contested the series alongside Pierluigi Martini and Olivier Grouillard, both established professionals who would themselves reach Formula 1. His progression to Formula 1 came in 1990, where he finished 15th in the championship standings from seven rounds. The grid included multiple world champions; he finished ahead of Ayrton Senna on one occasion and Jean Alesi twice, though Senna and Alesi were both far more experienced drivers with multiple title credentials between them.[2]
