🇨🇦 Justin Di Benedetto

Justin Di Benedetto is a professional-level sportscar driver competing in IMSA endurance racing, rated 3,902 on the Elo scale; this places him in the semi-professional band, meaning he wins and runs competitive in pro-am and one-make classes and consistently runs mid-pack in fields mixing full professionals with amateurs. His FIA Silver grading confirms his status as a professional-level competitor, though one typically early in his endurance racing career. Across three seasons from 2024 to 2026, he has contested 18 races, earning six podiums with no wins, and averages a fifth-place finish.[1]

Di Benedetto's record shows a driver still developing consistency in professional company. His head-to-head results are mixed; he holds a strong advantage over FIA Bronze-graded amateurs Roland Krainz, Angus Rogers, and Frank DePew, winning 10, 10, and 11 of those shared races respectively. Against higher-level Silver-graded professionals, however, the picture is less favourable. He trails Kiko Porto, a former champion at his own rating tier, losing 10 of 11 encounters; he also sits behind Steven Clemons and Ian Porter across their shared races. This pattern reflects a driver competitive at the amateur end of the professional field but not yet consistently matching established Silver-grade company.[2]

Most of his racing has come through Di Benedetto Racing in the IMSA VP Racing SportsCar Challenge, a platform where he accumulated five podiums in the 2026 season across six rounds and finished third in the final standings. Isolated victories over higher-level rivals such as Kiko Porto, Daniel Morad of Gold grade, and Westin Workman, a former champion, demonstrate moments of competitiveness against the stronger drivers in his field, though these remain single results rather than patterns of dominance. His current activity in 2026 places him in active endurance racing.
