Marc Busch is a professional endurance racing driver who competed in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie, a multiclass championship where his Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and GT3 cars raced alongside 14 other classes in shared-driver format across one country. Graded FIA Bronze, he spent seven seasons in the series from 2010 to 2016, based primarily with Car #44. He is now retired.[1]
Over his 47 starts in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie, Busch took eight wins and 16 podiums. His final season was 2016, when he finished 26th in the championship standings across four rounds. His record sits at the entry-level professional tier; he was closely matched against Klaus Abbelen, a bronze-graded regular opponent and 2014 series champion in the SP 9 class, and typically outpaced Peter Schmidt, another regular of similar standing. Busch finished ahead of two established professionals on single occasions: Maro Engel, a Platinum-graded driver who later won the GT World Challenge Europe championship, and Laurens Vanthoor, a Platinum-graded driver and multiple-series champion across IMSA and WEC machinery.[2]
