🏳️ Herbert von Danwitz

Herbert von Danwitz was a club-level driver competing in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie, a multiclass endurance championship run at a single circuit in Germany where amateurs and professionals race together across multiple classes. He drove for Pixum Team Adrenalin Motorsport Porsche, competing in the Cup 3 and Cup 5 classes in Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport and BMW one-make machinery, and also drove for Fleper Motorsport. His racing spanned from 2010 to 2018.[1]

Over seven seasons von Danwitz completed 30 starts and took a single podium finish. In his final season, 2018, he placed 18th in the championship standings across one round raced. Throughout his career he typically finished behind his regular opponents; Heiko Eichenberg, an entry-level professional who won three Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie titles, and Holger Goedicke, a competitive amateur with 54 starts in the series, both regularly outpaced him. Twice he finished ahead of much stronger drivers: he beat established professional Daniel Abt, who has raced 57 Formula E rounds, once across their limited meetings, and finished ahead of Eric Curran, another established professional with 48 IMSA WeatherTech starts, on one occasion.[2]
