Max Reis (born 28 January 2007) is a German racing driver currently competing for Haupt Racing Team in ADAC GT Masters.

Early career

[edit]

Reis began karting in 2015. Racing in Kart Slalom competitions in his first two years in karting, Reis was the Junior and vice champion of the Rheinland-Pfalz series in his rookie year, before winning the German championship a year later.[1][2] Reis then joined Team Kali Kart Germany for 2017,[3] winning the Graf-Berghe-von-Trips memorial in the Rotax Micro class at the end of the year.[4]

Switching to Nees Racing for 2018,[5] Reis won the ACV Kart Nationals and the RMC Germany title,[6][7] along with a second win in the Graf-Berghe-von-Trips memorial and his only participation in the Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals at season's end.[8][9] Reis continued in karting for two more years, winning the RMC Clubsport title in 2019 and taking his third consecutive Graf-Berghe-von-Trips memorial win that same year before ending his karting career with a ninth-place points finish in the 2020 ADAC Kart Masters.[10][11]

After testing Formula 4 machinery in 2021,[12] Reis made his single-seater debut in 2022, racing in the FFSA Academy-centrally run French F4 Championship.[13] In his maiden season in single-seaters, Reis took his maiden podium at Pau by finishing second in race two, which helped him to finish 15th in points at season's end.[14][15] Reis returned to the series in 2023 as one of three representatives of the ADAC Junior Team.[16] In his sophomore season, Reis once again scored just one podium throughout the season, a third-place finish in race one at Lédenon, and ended the season 14th in points.[17][18]

GT career

[edit]

Reis moved to ADAC GT Masters for 2024, joining Mercedes-fielding Haupt Racing Team alongside Kwanda Mokoena.[19] In his maiden season in sports cars, Reis finished third on debut at Oschersleben, which was his only podium of the season, and took his maiden pole position at the Red Bull Ring en route to a 13th-place points finish at season's end.[20][21]

Despite Haupt Racing Team switching to Ford for 2025, Reis returned to the team for his sophomore season in ADAC GT Masters, this time alongside Niklas Kalus.[22] After finishing third at the season-opening race at Lausitzring,[23] Reis qualified on pole for race one at the Nürburgring two rounds later and finished second in race two to exit the round third in points.[24][25]
