Hannes Plesse was a professional endurance racing driver competing in multiclass national championships at the Nürburgring between 2010 and 2019. He raced for Konrad Motorsport in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie across nine seasons, driving Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and Cayman GT4 Clubsport machinery in the Cup classes and production-based SP 6 cars, before a final appearance for SetupWizzard Racing in the Nürburgring 24 Hours.[1]
Plesse took two wins and nine podiums from 20 starts. His record in the Langstrecken-Serie spanned 2010 to 2018, yielding 2 wins and 8 podiums across 19 entries; he added a podium finish in his sole Nürburgring 24 Hours start in 2019. His most consistent form came against regular opponents at his level; he split results evenly with Oliver Kainz, a two-time Langstrecken-Serie SP 7 champion and entry-level professional, and ran closely matched with Jochen Krumbach, a professional graded driver and 2012 SP 9 title holder.[2]
Among the strongest drivers to finish behind Plesse were Timo Bernhard, an established professional and 2016 WEC LMP1 champion with 39 WEC starts, and Rene Rast, an established professional and three-time DTM champion with 104 DTM starts. He raced five times for BLACK FALCON Mercedes-Benz, one of the Langstrecken-Serie's established operations.
