History
His career began in Karting, leading up to winning the 2006 Junior Monaco Kart Cup. In 2007, he finished second in his debut season of Forumula BMW Europe, and was immediately picked up by Zakspeed for their Superleague Formula program. Driving under the Borussia Dortmund banner, he won the series first time of asking, and was immediately picked up for GP2 by David Price Racing. However, the season did not go well, finishing 21st with only 5 points.
Unable to find the budget to continue in GP2, he switched to Auto GP with Campos Racing - finishing 4th in 2010, and following up with the championship in 2011. He then joined IndyCar in 2012, with mixed results in the two seasons he spent there with Panther Racing.
In 2014, he switched to the rival F1 Rejects Big Car Championship series with Virgin Inter Corse, and when the team went into administration & was purchased by Scuderia Alitalia, continued with his new team in the series.
In the same season, Jancker was handed a one-off guest drive in the 2014 F3RWRS Surfers Superprix with Dofasco Junior Racing. While he failed to qualify in Dofasco's lethargic car, he massively outpaced his team-mates all weekend, and was rewarded with a drive in 2015 with Hydook Racing.
He also made a one-off appearance as the endurace co-driver for the #43 Scuderia Alitalia Polski-Fiat in the Rejectful Eastern European Car Computerised Series, and his excellent performance on his debut meant he was signed up for a full season in a car of his own, to become team-mate to 2011 enduro co-driver Krzysztof Holowczyc.
Outside of racing, Carsten is a big football fan, being an avid supporter of FC Bayern Munich.
