Richard Verschoor is an established professional driver rated 6,108; this places him among the sharp end of strong feeder series and capable of wins in top-tier fields. His FIA Gold grading denotes a full professional in sportscar and endurance racing. Over 12 seasons and 219 starts from 2013 to 2026, Verschoor has built a career primarily in single-seater categories, accumulating nine wins and 28 podiums across all series.[1]

His main tenure came in Formula 2 from 2021 to 2025 with MP Motorsport, where he started 129 times, won eight races, and scored 20 podiums. This extended campaign saw him compete regularly against drivers of considerable calibre. His head-to-head record against peers shows a mixed picture; he holds a narrow advantage over Enzo Fittipaldi, a Gold-graded one-time champion, finishing ahead 46 times to 35 behind in 81 shared races, and a significant edge over Roman Stanek and Dennis Hauger, both Gold-graded professionals with strong single-seater pedigrees. Conversely, Jehan Daruvala, another Gold-graded peer, finished ahead of him 43 times to 31 in 74 races. Against Théo Pourchaire, a Platinum-graded two-time champion, Verschoor held a winning record of 48 ahead to 25 behind across 73 races. He recorded occasional top finishes against generational drivers who passed through the category; he beat Oscar Piastri nine times, Andrea Kimi Antonelli nine times, and Liam Lawson 19 times, though these represent isolated results rather than sustained competitive patterns. His average finish position across all starts was P9.2.[2]

Since concluding his Formula 2 campaign, Verschoor has transitioned into endurance racing, beginning his 2026 season in the European Le Mans Series and World Endurance Championship with Duqueine Team. As of June 2026, he has started three ELMS rounds with two podium finishes and one WEC outing. He has been added to the McLaren Racing driver development programme as part of a three-driver addition announced in December 2025.
