Stefano Croci is a competitive amateur racing in multiclass endurance championships at the Nürburgring. He competes in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie in production-car classes and the Nürburgring 24 Hours in the V6 class, primarily for rent2drive-FAMILIA-racing Renault, and shares his cars with co-drivers through races lasting several hours.[1]
His record spans nine seasons from 2016 onward, with 23 starts across both championships producing 2 wins and 8 podiums. In the Langstrecken-Serie, a multiclass series mixing amateurs with graded professionals, Croci took one win and six podiums across 20 starts between 2016 and 2022. He moved to the Nürburgring 24 Hours in 2024 with rent2Drive-MEHRTEC-racing and has taken a win and two podiums in three starts there; the 2026 season is still in progress.[2]
Croci typically finishes ahead of club-level regulars such as Axel Jahn but behind entry-level professionals like Janis Waldow, a two-time Langstrecken-Serie VT2 champion he meets regularly. He has beaten established professional drivers including Alessio Picariello, a Gold-graded competitor with European Le Mans Series and GT World Challenge Europe experience, and Jonathan Aberdein, a Gold-graded professional who raced DTM and FIA Formula 3 European; both results came as single-race outcomes rather than a pattern across meetings.
