A dream in the fast lane

Welcome to the world of Janik Pletscher, an up-and-coming motorsport talent whose passion and determination drive him to new heights.

My first contact with motorsport was at the age of 7, inspired by Sebastian Vettel and his impressive fourth consecutive title. Since then, I have honed my skills through sim racing and started my journey into real racing. At 16, I showed my talent at Racing Unleashed, achieving an impressive third place in the first race. These experiences shape my vision and my unwavering will to achieve great things in motorsport.
