Tobias Müller (born 13 October 1997) is a German racing driver competing in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie for 48LOSCH Motorsport by Black Falcon. He has won the Nürburgring 24 Hours in five different classes, and was Porsche Endurance Trophy Nürburgring champion in 2024.

Career

Müller began karting in 2005, competing until 2016.[1] During his time in karts, Müller most notably won the 2012 Euro Kart Cup in the Rotax Max Junior class,[2] and also finished ninth in the DD2 class of the 2016 Rotax Max Challenge.[3]

Making his car racing debut in 2017, Müller joined MKR Engineering to race a BMW M235i in the VLN Series.[4] In his first season in the Nürburgring-based series, Müller scored a podium at VLN2,[5][6] as well as racing in the 24 Hours of Nürburgring for Scheid Honert Motorsport in Cup 5.[7] Continuing with the latter team for his sophomore season in the VLN Series the following year,[8] Müller finished third in the BMW M235i Cup standings,[9] as well as winning the 24 Hours of Nürburgring for Mühlner Motorsport in Cup 3, aboard a Porsche Cayman GT4.[10] Staying in GT4 machinery for 2019, Müller joined Mercedes-linked Black Falcon for his third VLN season, during which he took the SP10 title with four wins to his name,[11] and securing his second consecutive class win at the standalone 24 Hours of Nürburgring, also in SP10.[12]

After racing in the 2020 Dubai 24 Hour for BMW customer team Bonk Motorsport,[13] Müller spent the rest of the year in the newly-renamed Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie for Porsche-fielding Black Falcon in the SP-Pro class.[14] As the only entry to the class, Müller won all five races and clinched the title by default, as was also the case at the 24 Hours of Nürburgring.[15] Stepping up to GT3 machinery for the following year, Müller joined Porsche-linked Rutronik Racing to compete in the first three rounds of the NLS and the 24 Hours of Nürburgring,[16] before completing the season with Frikadelli Racing Team and Falken Motorsports,[17] scoring an outright podium with the latter at NLS7.[18]

Returning to Black Falcon for 2022, Müller raced with them in the brand-new Porsche Endurance Trophy Nürburgring,[19] scoring two wins en route to a ninth-place points finish in the Cup2 standings.[20] He made headlines at NLS8—after an engine failure left him stranded for several minutes, onboard cameras showed Müller swearing at marshals for only waving a yellow flag. He later apologised, admitting he had "feared for [his] life".[21] In 2023, Müller again finished ninth with one win,[22] adding a class podium at the 24 Hours of Nürburgring and a cameo in the SP9 class of the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie for Rutronik Racing.[23] At the end of the year, Müller raced in the 12 Hours of Kuwait for KKrämer Racing,[24] finishing third in the 992 class.[25] Remaining with Black Falcon for a third PETN season, Müller won four of the eight races he contested to secure the Cup2 title.[26] During 2024, Müller also won the inaugural edition of the 992 Endurance Cup for the same team.[27][28]

Müller then remained with Black Falcon to defend his title the following year,[29] ultimately coming runner-up in points after scoring two wins.[30] He also pulled double duty in NLS7, where he won both the Cup2 and SP9 Am classes, set the overall fastest lap and was chosen driver of the day.[31][32] During 2025, Müller also won the 24 Hours of Nürburgring in Cup2, as well as the 992 Endurance Cup for the same team.[33][34] After undergoing foot surgery in the winter,[35] Müller reunited with Black Falcon to race a Porsche 911 GT3 R (992.2) in the SP9 Pro-Am class of the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie in 2026.[36] In the opening hour of NLS2, Müller notably charged from 12th to 3rd, trailing only Christopher Haase and Max Verstappen, en route to his first class win of the season.[37][38] Another class victory and overall top 10 followed at the 24 Hours of Nürburgring,[39] before Müller reunited with Mühlner Motorsport to make his 24 Hours of Spa debut.[40]
