Santino Ferrucci (born May 31, 1998) is an American racing driver from Woodbury, Connecticut.

Career

2012-2013

At 14 years old, Ferrucci made his professional debut in the SBF2000 Winter Series season, winning 3 out of the 10 races in the season, with a further 3 podiums.

2013

Now 15 years old, Ferrucci made a mid-season debut in the F2000 Championship Series, finishing a respectable 5th place in the championship.

2014

When he finally turned 16 years old, and old enough to compete in Formula 3, Ferrucci competed in 5 races in German Formula Three for EuroInternational, scoring 2nd in his 4th race, 3 races in British Formula 3 for Fortec Motorsport, scoring 1 pole, 2 wins, a 3rd place and 2 fastest laps and the end of European Formula 3 season, again for EuroInternational.

2015

At the start of the year, Ferrucci raced his first full championship series in cars, racing for Giles Motorsport in the Toyota Racing Series. Due to consistency and very good performances, Ferrucci finished 3rd overall, scoring his first and only win at Manfeild and scoring 5 other podium places at Teretonga, Hampton Downs and Taupo. Despite being the highest placed driver in his team, Ferrucci was only beaten by Lance Stroll and Brandon Maïsano, who both raced for M2 Competition.

After his good start to the year, Ferrucci returned to European Formula 3, this time with Mücke Motorsport, finishing 11th overall and scoring his first and only podium in Formula 3 at Spa, finishing 2nd in Race 2.

At the end of the year, Ferrucci raced the prestigious Macau Grand Prix, again for Mücke Motorsport, finishing in 7th after starting 11th, a strong performance for a rookie.

2016

After a good year last year, Ferrucci stepped up to the GP3 Series with newcomers DAMS.[1]

The season didn't go too well for Santino's first weekend in the series at Spain, with a poor start in the Feature Race leaving him in 15th but clawed back to finish 11th in the Sprint Race.

Formula 1

After confirmation of Ferrucci's entry into the GP3 Series, he became a development driver for Haas F1 Team alongside Ferrari Driver Academy member and fellow GP3 rival, Charles Leclerc.[2]
