Moritz Löhner
"Moritz knows how to push for opportunities while also being level headed enough to stay back when appropriate and as one of the best decisive thinkers in the business, simple finishes could be enough for Löhner to get what he wants and more." - Jake Sparey

Biography
Löhner started SimRacing at the age of seven as he had his first contacts with his fathers simulator. Very soon he got his own PC with a G27 Wheel and Pedals and drove at fun-leagues in Race07, rFactor and GTR2.
With RaceRoom Racing Experience being released he changed to this new simulation and competed in one of many Leaderbaord Competitions and Championships where he first noticed that he is one of the top drivers. Being picked up by EURONICS Gaming and therefore being in an esports environment pushed him even further and later he managed to win some bigger races and compete in offline events against the fastest drivers.
The competition on the RaceRoom platform however wasn´t enough of a challenge for Moritz so he started racing on iRacing where he already got into the 2017 VRS GT iRacing World Championship together with his new team CORE Motorsports after just a few months.
In 2018 he qualified for the iRacing World Championship Grand Prix Series which was a big step forward in his career and he later on got picked up by Williams Esports as one of their first drivers for the iRacing roster.
In 2019 Moritz' focus shifted towards RaceRoom and after some good results in most of the events he competed in he finally got his very first championship title in the ADAC GT Masters Esports Championship.
That momentum really picked up in 2020 and it developed to be his most successfull year yet. It didn't start promissing though as Covid forced all the events to be held online. No good news for Moritz as he prooved to be a very good LAN competitor. This didn't stop him from showing otherwise as he won three major titles - the Porsche Esports Carrera Cup Deutschland, DTM Esports and the most packed RaceRoom championship ever - the ADAC GT Masters Esports where he defended his title of the previous year.
