Michael Krumm is one of NISMO's greatest ambassadors and has competed in Nissan cars throughout his racing career.

 

In recent years he has focused on the Super GT Championship but two seasons in the FIA GT1 World Championship led to Michael winning the driver's title in 2011.

 

He also drove the Nissan GT-R NISMO ‘Time Attack' car that took the Nurburgring Nordschleife lap record for a volume production car in September 2013, with a time of just 7 minutes 8.679 seconds.

 

Michael's career has taken him all over the world but the focus of his racing has been in Japan where he is a NISMO-contracted driver. He is married to professional tennis player, Kimiko Date-Krumm.
