Sebastian Bach (born 4 June 2008) is a Danish racing driver who last competed for STEP Motorsport in the Nordic 4 Championship.
Personal life
Bach is the son of Kenn Bach,[1] a former racing driver who competed in TCR Denmark from 2020 to 2022.[2]
Career
Bach began karting at the age of ten, competing until 2023.[3] Racing mainly in Europe in his karting career, Bach most notably was the Danish Rotax Max champion in 2021 and 2022 in the Mini and Junior classes respectively.[4] Bach also partook in the Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals three times, scoring a best result of ninth in 2023 whilst racing in the E20 Senior Max class.[5]
In 2024, Bach made his single-seater debut in the newly-rebranded Nordic 4 Championship for STEP Motorsport.[6] In his maiden season in the series, Bach scored his only win of the season in the second round at Jyllands-Ringen and took six more podiums to secure fourth in the overall standings and also secured the rookie title.[7][8]
The following year, Bach returned to Formula 4 competition, joining AS Motorsport to contest the first three rounds of the Formula Winter Series,[9][10] in which he scored points twice by finishing ninth in race two at Algarve and tenth in race three at Aragón.[11][12] For the rest of 2025, Bach returned to STEP Motorsport for his sophomore year in Nordic 4,[13] winning at Padborg Park and Jyllands-Ringen,[14] to secure runner-up honors in the Danish standings.[15] Despite losing the title to Marius Kristiansen by seven points in the former,[16] Bach won the Nordic Championship Formula title, held in conjunction with Formula Nordic, after winning all three races at Falkenbergs Motorbana earlier in the year.[17][18]
During 2025, Bach also made his sportscar debut in Ligier JS Cup France, in which he competed in four races for Loire Valley Racing.[19][20] At the end of the year, Bach took part in the European Le Mans Series rookie tests, sampling LMP3 machinery for the first time with CLX Motorsport.[21][22]
