Arturo Melgar is a semi-professional racing driver competing in GT Winter Series, a multiclass national championship mixing amateur and professional entrants across five classes. He races the CUP 1 class for Mertel Motorsport in Ferrari 488 and 296 Challenge cars, holding an FIA Silver grade in endurance racing; this places him below the full-professional Platinum and Gold grades and indicates a driver developing at the sportscar level.[1]
His racing record consists of a single season in 2024, when he made three starts in GT Winter Series and finished ninth in the championship standings with one podium finish. In that brief indexed record, he raced regularly against stronger opposition including Timo Glock, a Platinum-graded professional with 95 Formula 1 starts and the 2007 GP2 Series title, and Matthew Griffin, an entry-level professional who has contested the World Endurance Championship and European Le Mans Series. Melgar finished ahead of both drivers on one occasion each, though his typical finishes came behind them across the season.[2]
