Luiz Felipe de Oliveira Nasr (born 21 August 1992) is a Brazilian racing driver, who competes in the IMSA SportsCar Championship for Porsche. Nasr competed in Formula One from 2015 to 2016. In endurance racing, Nasr has won three IMSA SportsCar Championship titles, and won the 12 Hours of Sebring in 2019 with AXR; he also won the 24 Hours of Daytona in 2024 with Porsche.

Contents

After a year as the official test driver for Williams in 2014, he joined Sauber as a full-time Formula One driver in 2015. [1] [2] However, from the 2017 season he was replaced by Pascal Wehrlein. [3]

From 2018, Nasr has been competing in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship for Whelen Engineering Racing, [4] winning the championship with co-driver Eric Curran in his first year in the series and winning another title with countryman Pipo Derani in 2021.

For 2022, Nasr was named a Porsche factory driver.

Career

Karting

Born in Brasília, Distrito Federal, Nasr began karting in Brazil when he was seven years old. Between 2000 and 2007 he won several championship titles in Brazil. [5]

Formula BMW

2008

Nasr made his open-wheel racing debut in the final round of the 2008 Formula BMW Americas season at Interlagos, which supported the 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix, claiming a podium finish in the second race in a championship that was dominated by Alexander Rossi. [5]

2009

Nasr moved to the European championship of Formula BMW in 2009 for EuroInternational. He finished 14 of the 16 races in the top two, won 6 races, 5 pole-positions and claimed the title by 104 points from teammate Daniel Juncadella. As the championship was held by BMW, linked to Sauber in that season, Nasr was called to test a Sauber F1 car, but with BMW leaving F1, the test did not happen.

Formula Three

2010

For the 2010, Nasr moved into the British Formula 3 Championship with Räikkönen Robertson Racing, joining a three-car team alongside the team's 2009 drivers Carlos Huertas and Daisuke Nakajima. [6] In addition to signing for the team, Nasr signed to Robertson Management, the organisation that manages the career of former Formula One World Drivers' Champion Kimi Räikkönen. Nasr finished the 2010 British Formula 3 season in 5th position. [7]

2011

Nasr signed with Carlin Motorsport for the 2011 Championship and won the Sunoco Rolex 24 at Daytona Challenge, a special joint racing programme among series in the United Kingdom that use Sunoco Racing Fuel. The winner of that challenge won a drive in the 2012 Rolex 24 at Daytona. He was third in the Daytona 24 Hour. [8] Nasr claimed the title of the 2011 British Formula 3 season, 123 points ahead of his teammate, Kevin Magnussen.

In the 2012 Rolex 24 at Daytona, Nasr finished third overall and in class, driving a second generation Riley prototype for Michael Shank Racing.

GP2 Series

2012

Nasr signed with DAMS to race in the 2012 GP2 Series season with the support of Brazilian sponsors Banco do Brasil and Eike Batista's OGX. [9] Nasr's best results were a 2nd place in Race 2 of the Belgian round and a 4th place in Race 1 of the German round. He was teamed with the experienced Davide Valsecchi, who won the drivers' championship; Nasr's tenth place in the standings meant DAMS won the teams' championship as well. He took four podium finishes, with a best finish of second at Spa, and was the second highest-placed rookie overall, behind James Calado.

2013

For the 2013 GP2 Series season Nasr moved to Carlin, partnering British Jolyon Palmer. Nasr believed that he would be a title contender, alongside James Calado and Marcus Ericsson, and hoped to be driving an F1 car at the end of the year. Nasr finished the 2013 campaign 4th overall in the standings.

2014

Nasr remained with Carlin for the 2014 season, partnering Colombian Julián Leal. He took his first GP2 win in the sprint race in Barcelona. [10] He achieved wins at the Red Bull Ring, [11] Silverstone, [12] and Spa-Francorchamps. [13] Throughout the season, he was involved in a fight for the championship with former teammate Jolyon Palmer, losing out in Russia. [14] Nasr finished third overall, after losing second place by five points, to rookie Stoffel Vandoorne at Yas Marina. [15]

Formula One

2014

It was confirmed on 22 February 2014 that Nasr would be joining Williams as the team's reserve driver, participating in three tests and five free practice sessions across the course of the season. [16] He made his first appearance in first practice in the Bahrain Grand Prix replacing Valtteri Bottas. [17]

Sauber (2015–2016)

On 5 November 2014, it was announced that Nasr would drive for Sauber in 2015. [2] In his first race with the team in Australia, Nasr finished in fifth position, the highest placing for a Brazilian driver making a Grand Prix début. [18] [19] His finishing streak ended at the British Grand Prix when his gearbox failed on the way to the grid. In Japan, for the first time, he failed to finish, as he had a mechanical failure on lap 51; he was classified in 20th place. Nasr finished his début season with 27 points, finishing 13th in the drivers' championship. [20] After a successful 2015 season, Sauber retained Nasr for 2016. [21]

Nasr's—and Sauber's—only points in 2016 came at the Brazilian Grand Prix, where he finished ninth. The finish allowed Sauber to overtake Manor in the constructors' championship, which cost the latter team prize money and eventually led to Manor's bankruptcy. [22] Ironically, this meant Nasr was left without a seat for the 2017 season as he was due to swap places with Manor driver Pascal Wehrlein and could not find another seat after the Manor team exited the sport. [23]

Formula E

Nasr at the 2019 Hong Kong ePrix

In January 2019, Nasr joined GEOX Dragon for the rookie test in Marrakesh, but was unable to participate due to contractual issues. [24] [25] The following month, it was announced Nasr would replace Maximilian Günther from the Mexico City ePrix onwards. [26] Because of Nasr's IMSA commitments, Günther had temporarily returned to his seat at the 2019 Rome ePrix. [27] He made his debut at the 2019 Mexico City ePrix where he finished in 19th place, having run at the back of the pack for the majority of the race. At his second race in Hong Kong, he crashed his car into the wall early in the race, taking out the two Mahindra cars of Pascal Wehrlein & Jerome d'Ambrosio in the process. At his third race in Sanya he stalled on the grid & recorded his second successive DNF. Nasr has not returned to Formula E since, ending his run at three consecutive races with one non-points finish and two DNFs, as the team opted to continue using Günther moving forward. He was classified 24th overall in the championship, tied on 0 points with Tom Dillmann & Felix Rosenqvist.

Planned IndyCar debut

On 10 March 2020, it was announced Nasr was scheduled to make his IndyCar debut for Carlin at the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. [28] However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the race was postponed until October, putting his debut on hold. Ultimately, Nasr did not compete in the season.

WeatherTech SportsCar Championship

In July 2020, Nasr tested positive for COVID-19. [29] He missed the round at Daytona but made a full recovery and returned to race at the next round of Sebring, starting from pole position and taking the race victory. [30]

Since he joined the series back in 2018 he has had 9 wins and 26 podiums [31] and is entering his 6th season racing in the category.

In 2024 he won the Rolex 24 in a Porsche 963.

Personal life

Nasr is of Lebanese ancestry, his grandfather having emigrated to Brazil in the 1960s. Nasr lists his favourite hobbies as sports, fishing and mechanics, [32] he cites the Star Wars and James Bond film series as his favourite films, [33] his favourite driver as Ayrton Senna, [32] and his favourite circuit as Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps. [32] Felipe is the nephew of Amir Nasr, who owns one of the most successful South American Formula Three racing teams that helped with the progression of many Brazilian drivers in junior formulas, such as Hélio Castroneves, Vítor Meira, Antônio Pizzonia, Luciano Burti, Bruno Junqueira, Cristiano da Matta, Mário Haberfeld, Max Wilson, Átila Abreu and Sérgio Jimenez. Nasr's favourite musical artists include Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan and Dire Straits. [34] Nasr is multilingual with the ability to speak Portuguese, English and Italian. [34]
