Falken Tires

Fourth-year Porsche Factory Driver Wolf Henzler joined Falken Tire in 2010 for the team’s first full season ALMS effort. . Henzler started competing in go karts in 1990 and just two years later, went on to win the German Formula BMW Rookie of the Year title. One of only nine Porsche factory drivers in the world, Henzler has since earned wins in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, 24 Hours of Spa and the 24 Hours of Daytona as well as numerous series championships. Alongside co-driver Bryan Sellers, Henzler has celebrated three wins with the American Le Mans Series Falken Tire GT team. He finished the final stint in the team’s first win in the torrential monsoon at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in 2011, resulting in Henzler being voted “Best Rain Racer” by ALMS fans in 2012. Henzler has proven his ability to charge through the field, creating impossible passing conditions and making them a reality. His aggressive driving combined with the strategic style of Sellers makes for the perfect combination for Team Falken Tire.
