Alberto Rodríguez Larreta was an Argentine racing driver who made a single World Championship Formula 1 appearance at the 1960 Argentine Grand Prix for Team Lotus. Driving the number 16 car, he qualified 15th and finished ninth, the highest-classified result of his career on record. In that sole outing, he beat several drivers of substantially higher calibre, including José Froilán González, a former champion-level competitor with a Racer Rating of 5,180; Masten Gregory, a professional driver rated 4,551; and others of similar standing. This was a respectable showing on debut, though it did not lead to a sustained Formula 1 career.[1]

Larreta continued racing in various series after 1960, competing until 1970, but no other World Championship starts are recorded. His single-season presence in the official record places him among lower-tier professional participants, with a Racer Rating of 2,963. He has remained a minor footnote in Argentine motorsport history, though his one Grand Prix result demonstrates capability against internationally ranked opposition.[2]
