Karting
Weiss began karting in 2020 at the age of 10, winning twice on his ADAC Kart Masters debut,[4] and finishing fifth in the Mini standings.[5] Weiß stayed in the Mini class in 2021, winning the ADAC Kart Masters title on dropped scores,[6] and also making his debut in WSK competitions in both the Champions Cup and Euro Series.[7]
Moving to X30 Junior in 2022, Weiss only competed in German championships, finishing runner-up to Finn Wiebelhaus in ADAC Kart Masters,[8] and finishing fourth in the season-ending ADAC Kart Bundesendlauf event at Ampfing.[9] Weiss remained in X30 Junior the following year as a member of Motorsport Team Germany,[10] once again finishing runner-up in the ADAC Kart Masters standings, this time to Phil Colin Strenge.[11] Weiss also made appearances in various karting championships around Europe, most notably finishing sixth in the Lonato round of the WSK Open Series.[12]
Stepping up to X30 Senior for 2024, Weiß clinched the DKM title by 43 points over Phil Colin Strenge at the final round at Wackersdorf.[13] In the same year, Weiß represented Germany in the FIA Motorsport Games Karting Sprint Senior discipline,[14] and finished 10th in the IAME Euro Series standings with a best result of second at Wackersdorf.[15]
