🇨🇭 Thomas Flohr

Thomas Flohr is a Bronze-graded amateur sportscar driver competing in FIA endurance racing at a semi-professional level. His Racer Rating of 4,270 places him among the upper tier of gentleman drivers who race regularly alongside full professionals in GT and endurance fields. Over a decade of racing from 2017 to 2026, Flohr has started 66 times in the WEC and Asian Le Mans Series, scoring three wins and eleven podiums, predominantly for Vista AF Corse. He averages a finishing position of P7.2 across classified starts, a solid result typical of a consistent amateur competing against a much stronger field.[1]

Flohr's head-to-head record against his most frequent rivals reveals a mixed competitive picture. Against Benjamin Barker, an FIA Gold professional, he holds a clear advantage with 29 finishes ahead to 17 behind across 46 shared races. However, he trails Christian Ried, a four-time Bronze champion, by 14 wins to 26 losses in 40 races, and loses consistently to Riccardo Pera and Matteo Cairoli, both higher-graded professionals with stronger Racer Ratings. Against Matteo Cairoli, an FIA Platinum-graded driver rated 5,229, Flohr finished ahead only 16 times against 21 losses. Most notably, Flohr has occasionally beaten drivers of considerably stronger standing; he has four finishes ahead of Matt Campbell, a three-time FIA Platinum champion rated 6,394, and four ahead of Kelvin van der Linde, another Platinum-graded champion rated 5,959, demonstrating that he can occasionally run with the elite of sportscar racing on competitive days.[2]

Flohr remains active in 2026 WEC, though his recent form has yielded no podiums through four rounds this season. His career represents the archetypal gentleman driver profile in modern endurance racing: a well-funded amateur with sustained access to top machinery and professional teams, competing consistently in the WEC's most prestigious class but ultimately outpaced over race distance by the full-time professionals and younger Silver-graded drivers who share the grid.
