Lütke graduated from school
Lütke has said he did not graduate from school here; he dropped out at 16 and then started a programming apprenticeship.
Full reasoning
On his own website, Lütke describes this period very differently: “I dropped out of school when I was 16 years old” and then “decided the best thing to do was to drop out and start an apprenticeship as a Fachinformatiker – computer programmer.” That directly contradicts the article’s statement that he “graduated from school” before entering the apprenticeship.

He moved from Germany to Canada in 2003.
Lütke has publicly said he moved to Ottawa in 2002, not 2003.
Full reasoning
In an Ottawa Business Journal transcript of a public talk, Lütke says: “I moved to Ottawa in 2002.” That is a first-person account and conflicts with the article’s statement that he moved from Germany to Canada in 2003.

822*
The official IMSA 2025 season standings list Lütke on 1,647 points, not 822.
Full reasoning
The article’s 2025 racing summary row gives Lütke 822 points. IMSA’s official 2025 WeatherTech SportsCar Championship LMP2 driver standings show Tobi Lutke with 1,647 points at season end. That means the points figure in this row is incorrect.

19th*
IMSA’s official 2025 LMP2 driver standings place Lütke 15th, not 19th.
Full reasoning
The 2025 racing summary row says Lütke finished 19th. IMSA’s official 2025 WeatherTech SportsCar Championship LMP2 driver standings list Tobi Lutke in 15th place with 1,647 points. So the position shown here is wrong.
