Alexander Wurz (born 15 February 1974 in Waidhofen an der Thaya
, Lower Austria
) is an Austria
n racing driver. He competed in Formula One from until , and is also a two-time winner of the Le Mans 24 Hours
.
He was a test driver for the Brawn GP
team for the 2009 Formula One season
.
He is the second son of former rallycross
driver Franz Wurz, who won the European Rallycross Championship in 1974, 1976 and 1982.
World Championship. This gave him an underlying physical fitness suitable for motor racing. In 2000, Wurz returned somewhat to his cycling roots, starting an MTB
team with countryman Markus Rainer. The team, Rainer-Wurz.com
, is currently sponsored by sponsors McLaren, Siemens
, and Cannondale amongst others. They are multiple World Cup winners.
. In 1993, he switched to the German Formula Three Championship
. From 1996, Wurz drove an Opel Calibra
for the Joest Racing
touring car team in the DTM
. Also in 1996, Wurz, together with Davy Jones
and Manuel Reuter
, won the Le Mans 24 Hours and in so doing became the youngest ever winner of the 24-hour race. He still holds the record to this day.
Wurz's Formula One debut was on June 15, 1997 at Montreal
for Benetton
filling in for fellow Austrian Gerhard Berger
, who couldn't race due to illness. Wurz impressed with a podium position in his third race (1997 British Grand Prix
) before returning to being a test driver upon Berger's return to the cockpit at the German Grand Prix
, which Berger won.
However, Wurz was rewarded with a full-time race seat for the 1998 season with Benetton and spent three more seasons at the team, partnered each year by Giancarlo Fisichella
. A strong start to 1998 suggested a bright future, and even attracted the interest of Ferrari
, but the three-season stint at Benetton turned out to be a disappointment. Toward the end of his Benetton time, Fisichella produced better results, although in 1998 Fisichella had one point less than Wurz, finishing 9th whereas Wurz finished 8th in that Season with 17 points (together with Heinz-Harald Frentzen
, who finished 7th.) and five 4th places. One notable race was the 1998 Monaco Grand Prix
, where he was running 2nd ahead of Michael Schumacher
for a brief period. His hopes of a podium finish were ruined when Schumacher tried to pass through at Loews hairpin, but collided together with him and like Schumacher's Ferrari, his suspension broke, causing him to spin off and crash at the Nouvelle Chicane exiting the tunnel. He retired and Schumacher finished 10th in the end after the German pitted for repairs.
Unable to find a race seat at a leading team for , he took on the role of third (i.e., test) driver for McLaren.
In April 2005, with Juan Pablo Montoya
injured, Wurz drove for McLaren in the 2005 San Marino Grand Prix
, finishing fourth in the race, but taking third place after both BAR-Honda drivers were disqualified. This gave him a unique record, as no other driver has had such a long gap between podiums as Wurz, who went eight years without one. His drive at Imola
was all the more notable because he was still not comfortable in the car, and at times had to drive with one hand.
Since his signing to McLaren as test driver, Wurz had been eager to return to racing. At various times during this time he was linked in rumours to a return to a full race seat. His large size for a Formula One driver (186 cm/6'1.5") has perhaps been a factor that has not helped. In fact, because they were so sure he would be driving for Austria
n-owned Red Bull Racing
in , the designers at McLaren neglected to allow for his size, meaning he could not physically fit in the car. In he was strongly linked to a race seat at Jaguar, where the under-fire Antônio Pizzonia
was struggling. However, McLaren were struggling with their abortive new car and blocked the move to retain Wurz as a development driver. Jaguar then decided to give Pizzonia more time to prove himself, before drafting in Justin Wilson.
Alexander Wurz signed a deal with WilliamsF1
to become the team's official test and reserve driver at the beginning of 2006. He drove the third car at all Grand Prix Fridays in . It was announced on 3 August 2006 that Wurz would replace Mark Webber
as a race driver at Williams for the season. This was Wurz's first full time race drive since 2000, and his team mate was Nico Rosberg
. At the Monaco GP on 27 May 2007, Wurz scored his first points for the Williams F1 team, finishing in 7th place after qualifying 11th. He came 3rd for the 3rd time in his F1 career at the Canadian GP on 10 June 2007, staying out of trouble from 19th on the grid in an action packed race. He actually damaged his rear wing early on in the race, but battled against it and finished on the podium. He nearly repeated this at the European Grand Prix
, but just didn't make it past Mark Webber
at the final chicane. That race turned of to be Wurz's last points finish and especially from now on, team mate Rosberg distanced him. The Qualifying for the Japanese Grand Prix
, where Rosberg started from 16th on the grid, although he lost 10 places due to an engine change in practice, and Wurz started even further back in 18th without been putted further back on the grid.
On October 8, 2007 Wurz announced his immediate retirement from Formula One, meaning that the 2007 Chinese Grand Prix
was his final race.
The official Formula One website announced that "Williams driver Alexander Wurz has confirmed that he is to retire from Formula One racing with immediate effect". Wurz himself also released a statement saying "I would like to thank my family and fans, everyone at AT&T Williams and my previous teams, as well as the media, for all of their support during my Formula One racing career. I may race again, perhaps in Le Mans or other categories and certainly some of my time will now be committed to the very important subject of road safety." The 33-year old cited doubts over his own commitment as the main reason for his departure despite having a relatively successful season racing with Williams.
He was replaced by Williams test driver Kazuki Nakajima
for the final race of the 2007 season
in Brazil

Wurz was the Honda F1 test driver for the 2008 Formula One season

In 2009, together with Marc Gené
and David Brabham
, he took outright victory in the Le Mans 24 Hours
, driving a works Peugeot. The 13-year gap between Wurz's victories is the largest in the event's history.
Wurz continued to race for Peugeot Sport Total through 2010 and 2011, though no further Le Mans wins were forthcoming. In November 2011, Toyota Motorsports confirmed Wurz as one of their factory drivers for the companies planned return to the 24 Heures du Mans in 2012.
