Career

Karting

Starting his karting career in Brazil, Gomez won the 2020 Brazilian Karting Championship in OKJ before moving to Europe in 2021. Making the step up to OK and driving for CRG, Gomez finished third in the 2022 WSK Open Cup and was runner-up in the 2023 and 2024 editions of the European Karting Championship. [2] [3] [4]

Formula 4

2023

Gomez made his Formula 4 debut for Cram Motorsport at the final round of the 2023 F4 Spanish Championship. [5] Racing as a guest driver, Gomez finished 16th on debut.

2024

A week prior to the opening round of the season, TC Racing announced that Gomez would compete for them in the F4 Spanish Championship. [6] [7] Coming close to points on several occasions in the first half of the season, Gomez finished ninth in race one at Valencia, before taking his maiden rookie podium by finishing fourth in race two. [8] [9]

Gomez also competed for PHM AIX Racing in the opening round of Euro 4. [10] He scored a best result of 12th in race two, coming close to a rookie podium, and finished ninth in the rookie standings. [11] [12]

2025

In early 2025, it was announced that Gomez would compete for US Racing full-time in Italian F4 and in select rounds of Formula Winter Series. [13]

In the opening round of Formula Winter Series at Algarve, Gomez qualified on pole for race one and took his first win in single-seaters after overtaking Leo Robinson on the final lap. [14] Starting on pole for race two, Gomez held off Leo Robinson at the start and remained unchallenged after a safety car restart en route to his second win of the season. [15] In race three, Gomez finished fourth on track but was promoted to third after Maxim Rehm was disqualified from all three races due to a technical infringement. [16] [17]

At Valencia, Gomez opened up the weekend by qualifying on pole for all three races on Saturday, winning race one from pole on the same day and finishing third in race two on Sunday. [18] [19] In race three, Gomez finished runner-up to Leo Robinson after losing the lead to him at the start. [20] In the penultimate round of the season at Aragon, Gomez finished on the podium in all three races to maintain his lead in the standings heading to Barcelona, [21] where, despite a retirement in race one, he clinched the Formula Winter Series title with a race to spare by finishing fifth.
