🏳️ Michael Wanner

Michael Wanner is a club-level driver with a Racer Rating of 1,210, placing him in the developing category; this represents competitive amateur racing in regional fields without consistent involvement at professional level. His record spans three seasons from 2017 to 2019 in American Endurance Racing, where he made nine starts and scored four podium finishes but no wins. His average finishing position of P4.6 reflects occasional strong performances amid a generally mid-field record.[1]

Wanner's most frequent rivals in American Endurance Racing were semi-professional drivers including Alex Rubenstein and Trevor Dawe, both class champions in their series. Against Rubenstein, Wanner finished ahead in two of five shared races but trailed him three times; the head-to-head against Dawe followed the same pattern. His peers at the sharp end of club racing, such as Thomas Galeotafiore and Cj Bushart, were evenly matched with him across multiple encounters. Notably, Wanner finished ahead of significantly stronger drivers on isolated occasions; he beat FIA Silver graded professionals David Russell twice and Kyle Tilley once, and the Silver-graded Trans-Am champion Mike Skeen in a single race, though these remain single results against a largely amateur record rather than evidence of sustained competitiveness at that level.

His career concluded in 2019 with a distant finish at P161 in his final round.
