This early success set the foundation for his professional career.
In 2005, di Resta moved to the Formula Three Euroseries, and in 2006, racing for ASM Formule 3, he won the championship with five victories, notably defeating future Formula One World Drivers’ Champion Sebastian Vettel. He also won the 2006 BP Ultimate Masters at Circuit Park Zandvoort. In 2007, di Resta shifted to Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) with Mercedes, finishing fifth overall as the highest-placed driver in a non-2007 car. His DTM career progressed with two race wins and a second-place finish in points in 2008, followed by a third-place finish in 2009. His success culminated in winning the DTM championship in 2010 with three consecutive race victories.
Di Resta made his Formula One debut in 2010 as a test driver for Force India, officially joining the racing team from 2011 to 2013. During his Formula One tenure, he consistently scored points, achieving a career-best fourth-place finish at the 2012 Singapore Grand Prix. After his F1 racing stint, he returned to DTM from 2014 to 2019, securing a third-place overall finish in 2018 with three race wins. Since 2019, di Resta has been active in endurance racing, winning the 2018-19 Asian Le Mans Series LMP2 Championship and securing a class win at the 2020 24 Hours of Le Mans with United Autosports.
