🏳️ Jens Hantson

Jens Hantson is a competitive amateur racing driver, as rated at 2,118 on an Elo-style scale. This level encompasses the front of club racing and entry-level professional-am competition; drivers at this standard are quick and race against professionals regularly, though they typically operate on smaller budgets and do not fill permanent seats at the top level. Hantson holds one championship, the 2025 Porsche Sprint Challenge North America Cayman Pro-Am title, won in his debut season.[1]

His career spans two seasons and thirteen starts across two series within the Porsche Sprint Challenge North America platform. In 2025, Hantson competed in the Cayman Pro-Am class for Speedsport Tuning, winning four races from six starts and finishing on the podium in all but one outing. That dominant campaign secured the championship. Moving up to the GT3 Cup in 2026, he has struggled against a stronger field; seven starts with ACI Motorsports have yielded no wins or podiums, with an eighth-place finish in the final round his best result in the new series. Across both years, his average finish stands at fourth place overall, though this figure masks a sharp divide between his success in Cayman machinery and his difficulty in the GT3 Cup.

In head-to-head racing, Hantson has shown strength against some professional-level rivals in the Cayman field, notably beating FIA Silver graded drivers Matthew Siegal and Erika Hoffmann on multiple occasions and outrunning national-level competitors Brannan Hankins in five of seven shared races. However, his record against the stronger professionals who have fielded against him in the same races is considerably weaker, with losing records against established drivers such as Karel Staut, Danny Dyszelski, and Blake McGovern. The 2026 transition to the GT3 Cup has exposed the gulf in speed at that level, and Hantson remains a work in progress at the higher rung of the Porsche ladder.
