Matt Kurzejewski is a professional racing driver competing in multiclass endurance and single-class sprint series. He races GT3 machinery in the European Le Mans Series with Proton Competition and has recently stepped up from Ferrari Challenge and Le Mans Cup competition with AF Corse.[1]
Kurzejewski won the Ferrari Challenge P class championship in 2023 with Ferrari Beverly Hills, taking six wins and fourteen podiums across the season. He followed that with a dominant 2024 Le Mans Cup campaign, winning the GT3 class title with four wins from five rounds. He has also competed in the ARCA Menards Series, where he made 33 starts between 2013 and 2016; those appearances were predominantly on oval tracks, with a handful of road and street course outings. His sole victory to date in endurance racing came in the 2026 European Le Mens Series, one podium finish from his five starts so far in that championship.[2]
Kurzejewski finished ahead of Christopher Bell, an elite professional and 2017 NASCAR Truck champion with 263 NASCAR Cup Series starts, and Chase Briscoe, who won the 2016 ARCA Menards Series and has started 226 NASCAR Cup races. In his regular ARCA appearances he ran closely matched against Tom Hessert III, an entry-level professional, and typically outpaced Thomas Praytor, also at that level. His advancement to the European Le Mens Series places him in a field of drivers working toward or established in full-season endurance competition.
