| − | '''Stefan Kuntz''' (b. 28th January 1988 in Bonn, Germany) is a German racing driver, currently managed by [[Niko Nurminen]]. After moving to the UK in his early teens he started driving in the Ginetta Juniors, followed by the G50s. A couple of good seasons in BTCC led to a customer SEAT drive, but after so-so results he switched to single seaters series AutoGP, finishing an impressive 2nd in the championship with 3 race wins. He stepped up to Formula Renault 2.0 and had also been hired by [[Virgin Inter Corse]] for their [[F3RWRS]] programme simultaneously. When the team folded he lost his planned F3RWRS drive, and was hired by VIC's buyer [[Scuderia Alitalia]] to race in the resurrected [[Rejects of LFS]] season, on loan at [[Grands Travaux Inutiles]]. Despite finishing 20th and last in his RoLFS debut, he took full advantage of the reversed grid system in the sprint race and went on to win it. However, his relationship with GTI turned sour after he was banned for one GP after numerous incidents at the South City sprint race, and he was permanently replaced by [[Nobushige Fukuda]]. One win and 12th in the championship was not enough, and he was released by the Scuderia Alitalia young driver programme, after only managing 11th in FR2.0 the same year. It looked like his career was well and truly over, before Nurminen offered him a lifeline by entering him as a guest driver in the 2015 F3RWRS Monaco SuperPrix. However, his race ended when a botched pitstop led to him losing one of the wheels during the race. | + | '''Stefan Kuntz''' (b. 28th January 1988 in Bonn, Germany) is a German racing driver, currently managed by [[Niko Nurminen]].

Template:Infobox Racing Driver Stefan Kuntz (b. 28th January 1988 in Bonn, Germany) is a German racing driver, currently managed by Niko Nurminen. After moving to the UK in his early teens he started driving in the Ginetta Juniors, followed by the G50s. A couple of good seasons in BTCC led to a customer SEAT drive, but after so-so results he switched to single seaters series AutoGP, finishing an impressive 2nd in the championship with 3 race wins. He stepped up to Formula Renault 2.0 and had also been hired by Virgin Inter Corse for their F3RWRS programme simultaneously.

RoLFS
When the team folded he lost his planned F3RWRS drive, and was hired by VIC's buyer Scuderia Alitalia to race in the resurrected Rejects of LFS season, on loan at Grands Travaux Inutiles. Despite finishing 20th and last in his RoLFS debut, he took full advantage of the reversed grid system in the sprint race and went on to win it. However, his relationship with GTI turned sour after he was banned for one GP after numerous incidents at the South City sprint race, and he was permanently replaced by Nobushige Fukuda. One win and 12th in the championship was not enough, and he was released by the Scuderia Alitalia young driver programme, after only managing 11th in FR2.0 the same year.
F3RWRS
It looked like his career was well and truly over, before Nurminen offered him a lifeline by entering him as a guest driver in the 2015 F3RWRS Monaco SuperPrix. However, his race ended when a botched pitstop led to him losing one of the wheels during the race. He was then loaned to Fusion Motorsports to replace underperforming Leandro Moreira from the German round onwards.
