Leonard Hoogenboom (born 14 February 2000) is a Dutch racing driver who last competed in Prototype Cup Germany for DKR Engineering.
Hoogenboom made his single-seater debut in 2016, racing for Cram Motorsport in the Italian F4 Championship and RS Competition in the ADAC Formula 4 Championship. In the former, he took a best result of third in race three of the second Imola round as he ended the year 23rd in points with three other points finishes. In the latter, Hoogenboom switched to Van Amersfoort Racing from round two onwards, taking his only podium of the season in the second Oschersleben round, helping him round out the season 18th in points.
After taking his only win in single-seater competition in the final Yas Marina round of the 2016âÂÂ17 Formula 4 UAE Championship for Team Motopark, Hoogenboom remained with the German team for his sophomore season in the ADAC Formula 4 Championship. In his second season in the series, Hoogenboom scored a best result of seventh in race three at Lausitzring and one other points finish to end the year 21st in the overall standings. During 2017, Hoogenboom also raced for Cram in the Misano and Vallelunga rounds of the Italian F4 Championship. At the end of the year, Hoogenboom participated in the GP3 post-season tests at Yas Marina with MP Motorsport.
Despite taking part in the GP3 pre-season tests at Le Castellet for MP Motorsport, Hoogenboom elected to switch to sportscars for the rest of the year, joining DKR Engineering to compete in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup alongside Jens Petersen. In his first season in endurance racing, Hoogenboom started the season with wins at Le Castellet and Monza, before winning at the Red Bull Ring and scoring two other podiums to clinch the title with a race to spare. During 2018, Hoogenboom also raced in the Spa and Hungaroring rounds of the Euroformula Open Championship for RP Motorsport, taking a best result of seventh in race two of the former.
The following year, Hoogenboom stepped up to LMP2 competition by joining Panis Barthez Competition to race in the European Le Mans Series. After scoring a best result of seventh at Monza, Hoogenboom left the team ahead of Silverstone. Following that, Hoogenboom spent the rest of the year making select appearances in the Audi Sport Seyffarth R8 LMS Cup and the Supercar Challenge. At the end of the year, Hoogenboom joined G-Drive Racing with Algarve to race in the LMP2 class of the 2019âÂÂ20 Asian Le Mans Series alongside James French and Roman Rusinov. The trio began the season by winning at Shanghai and Tailem Bend, before finishing third at Sepang and second at Buriram as they clinched the LMP2 title.
For the rest of 2020, Hoogenboom was set to compete with EuroInternational in the LMP3 class of the European Le Mans Series, but ultimately didn't contest any of the five races. Hoogenboom then made a one-off appearance in the Assen round of the 2021 BMW M2 Cup Germany, in which he qualified on pole. Following that, Hoogenboom briefly returned to racing at the Zandvoort round of the 2023 Prototype Cup Germany season for DKR Engineering, in which he took a best result of seventh in race two.
