Valentin Pierburg is a retired entry-level professional driver who raced in multiclass and single-class endurance championships across seven seasons from 2017 to 2024. A FIA Bronze graded amateur, he competed primarily for SPS Automotive Performance in GT3 machinery; his main series were GT World Challenge Europe, where he took 31 starts across three seasons, the 24H Series, a multinational multiclass endurance championship, and Road to Le Mans. His record across all indexed racing totalled 42 starts, 3 wins and 6 podiums.[1]
Pierburg's three wins came in the 24H Series, a field mixing amateur and semi-professional entrants with graded professionals in shared-car racing. He scored four podiums there across seven starts between 2017 and 2022. His last indexed appearance was in 2024 Road to Le Mans.[2]
He raced regularly against Andrea Bertolini, a FIA Gold graded entry-level professional and three-time FIA GT Champion with 84 FIA GT Championship starts, and Louis Machiels, a Bronze graded GT World Challenge Europe regular with 71 starts there. Against Bertolini and Machiels, Pierburg was closely matched. He finished ahead of Maro Engel, the 2024 GT World Challenge Europe champion and FIA Platinum graded established professional with 87 starts in that series, six times across their shared races; and he beat Matt Campbell, a FIA Platinum graded established professional and multiple WEC champion, once in their single meeting.
