Will Stevens is an established professional sportscar driver rated 5,891, placing him in the band of full-time competitors at the top level of endurance racing. His FIA Platinum grading denotes a professional in sportscar and endurance competition, where he has built a sustained career across 17 seasons and 154 starts. Stevens won the 2022 WEC LMP2 championship with Jota, the pinnacle of his racing record, and has since competed in the top-tier WEC Hypercar category for Cadillac Hertz Team Jota, where he has added two further wins to a total of 12 victories across all series.[1]
Stevens began his career in single-seaters, winning twice in Formula V8 3.5 between 2012 and 2014 while competing against fields that included future Formula 1 drivers. He made the step to Formula 1 with Manor Marussia in 2014 and 2015 across 19 starts but did not score points or podiums; the team was uncompetitive that season. His record against world-class rivals in these appearances was instructive: he finished ahead of Max Verstappen and Nico Rosberg once each, notable single results rather than patterns, but accumulated a losing head-to-head record against other contemporary drivers such as Carlos Sainz and Kevin Magnussen across multiple races. His average finish of P8.1 across all racing reflects the split between his Formula 1 campaign and his stronger performances in endurance racing.[2]
Since returning to sportscar racing from 2016 onward, Stevens has prospered in the WEC, where he has scored 20 podiums and 8 wins in 47 starts for Cadillac Hertz Team Jota. His head-to-head record in the WEC shows him consistently competitive against other Platinum-graded professionals: he has finished ahead of Robin Frijns in 17 of 53 races despite Frijns holding a 2021 WEC LMP2 title, and beaten the steady Marco Sorensen 28 times in 52 races. Stevens has also raced in IMSA and the European Le Mans Series with Nielsen Racing, adding a win in the latter. Currently active in the 2026 WEC season, Stevens has secured a podium in four rounds to date and holds a competitive position within a Cadillac programme that has recently locked out the front row.
