Career edit
Born in Heilbronn, Pommer began his racing career in karting 1999.[1] He remained in karting until 2006. Amongst others he won 2004 the Southern German ADAC Kart Cup – ICA Junior. 2007 he began his formula racing career. He competed in the Formula BMW ADAC for Mücke Motorsport. He concluded the season behind his teammates Philipp Eng and Kevin Mirocha on the tenth position in the championship. After the fusion of the Formula BMW ADAC and the Formula BMW UK to the Formula BMW Europe, Pommer switched to Abt Sportsline in the ADAC Formel Masters 2008. Pommer won one race and finished five times on the podium. He finished the season in front of his teammate Daniel Abt on the fifth position in the championship.
In 2009 Pommer started in the German Formula Three Championship for Zettl Sportsline Motorsport. He won no races and scored two second place as his best results. He concluded the season behind Laurens Vanthoor and Stef Dusseldorp on the third position. Pommer was the best driver with an engine of Mercedes. In 2010 he remained in the German Formula Three Championship. He drove for Brandl Motorsport in this season. With a second place as his best result, he remains without a race win. He finished eighth in the championship and became the best driver with a Mercedes engine for the second time. In 2011 he competes his third season in the German Formula Three Championship. He started for Motopark Academy first.[2] After he had scored only one point out of the first three rounds, he switched to Jo Zeller Racing. In his second race he already achieved the first podium position with a second place.[3] After the fourth round he is on the tenth position in the championship.
Prototype Cup Germany edit
Following a pair of seasons racing in the European Le Mans Series, Pommer would pair up with Gary Hauser in 2023, driving for Racing Experience in the Prototype Cup Germany.[4] A win and a second place during the season opener in Hockenheim pulled the pair into the championship battle, which they would remain in over the coming rounds, with another pair of podiums coming at Oschersleben.[5] The round at Norisring heralded further success, as Pommer and Hauser took another victory to extend their advantage.[6] At the penultimate round in Assen, the duo won on Saturday, with Pommer having taken pole position and set the fastest lap, before a second place on Sunday ended up being enough to prematurely clinch the title.[7][8] The season ended with one further win at the Nürburgring, as Pommer repeated his qualifying performance from the previous round.[9]
