About Peter Terting

  • Peter Terting is a German auto racing driver, born on 19 February 1984 in Kempten.
  • He won the Volkswagen Lupo Cup in 2002, earning him a DTM drive for Abt Sportsline in 2003, although this proved to be too big a step up, and the teenager struggled to be competitive. After winning the 2004 German SEAT León Championship, he earned a full-time drive in the World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) for SEAT, joining Rickard Rydell and Jordi Gené.
  • He finished 12th overall, which included taking his first win in Mexico City, having finished 7th in race 1 and thus started 2nd in race 2 (the top 8 positions on the grid are reversed for the 2nd race of the meeting) [1].
  • For 2006 he raced for SEAT's Team Deutschland in the WTCC, improving to finish 9th overall.
  • In both seasons he finished 18 of the 20 races. Terting lost his SEAT drive for the 2007 season.
  • He instead made two starts in International GT Open and two in the Spanish GT Championship in a Sunred Engineering Sunred SR21.
  • He returned to SEAT in WTCC for the final two races of the season.
  • In 2008 Terting again did not have a full-time drive.
  • He made two starts in ADAC GT Masters driving a Kessel Racing Ferrari 430 and drove in the 24 Hours Nürburgring in a R-Line Volkswagen GTI, finishing 10th in class.
  • He also drove a VW in the race in 2010. He was engaged to British racing driver Katherine Legge.
  • Both Terting and Legge have moved to the United States where Legge secured a seat with Dragon Racing in the Izod Indycar Series for 2012-2013.
