Stéphane Ortelli (born 30 March 1970) is aMonégasque professional racing driver with three world championship titles. He has won the24 Hours of Le Mans race in1998 withAllan McNish andLaurent Aïello and theSpa 24 Hours in2003 withRomain Dumas andMarc Lieb. He's also won the GT1 Class at the12 Hours of Sebring in2005 withDavid Brabham andDarren Turner. Currently, he is anEmil Frey Racing driver competing and developing the Jaguar and Lexus GT racing cars in theBlancpain Endurance Series and theVLN series.
On 27 April 2008, during aLe Mans Series race at theMonza circuit, a mechanic issue caused hisCourage car to slide and spin onto the grass. This in turn instigated a cartwheeling motion upon the vehicle, which resulted in most of the car's bodywork and all but one wheel being torn off before it came to rest on the opposite side of the track. It narrowly missed the tail ofAllan McNish'sAudi R10 which was in front. Ortelli sustained a broken ankle as a result.[2]
