Maurício Gugelmin, born on April 20, 1963, in Joinville, Brazil, is a retired racing driver known for his participation in both Formula 1 and the Champ Car World Series. He began his motorsport career in karting, securing multiple championships before moving to Europe to compete in various junior categories. In 1985, Gugelmin won the British Formula 3 Championship, a notable achievement that highlighted his potential. Gugelmin made his Formula 1 debut in 1988 with the March team, where he raced until 1992, also driving for Leyton House and Jordan. During his F1 career, he participated in 80 Grands Prix, achieving one podium finish—a third place at the 1989 Brazilian Grand Prix—and scoring a total of ten championship points. Transitioning to the Champ Car series in 1993, Gugelmin competed until 2001, starting 147 races. His most successful season was in 1997, when he secured his sole victory at the Vancouver Grand Prix and finished fourth in the championship standings. Notably, he set a closed-course speed record in 1997 at California Speedway, reaching 240.942 mph (387.759 km/h). After retiring from racing, Gugelmin shifted his focus to business ventures, including involvement in reforestation projects in Brazil. His contributions to motorsport, particularly as one of the few Brazilian drivers to compete in both Formula 1 and Champ Car, remain a significant part of his legacy.
