Augusto Farfus is an FIA Gold-graded professional sportscar and endurance racing driver; his Racer Rating of 4,863 places him among established professionals, drivers who win regularly in strong fields and hold full-time seats at the top level of GT and endurance competition. Farfus has spent twelve seasons in sportscar racing since 2014, accumulating 117 starts across seven series. His record centres on the World Endurance Championship, where he has made 31 starts for Team WRT since 2018, taking one win and five podiums; he has also competed extensively in IMSA WeatherTech (26 starts, 2 wins, 8 podiums for Paul Miller Racing) and GT World Challenge Europe (20 starts, 2 wins, 3 podiums for Rowe Racing). His seven career wins are distributed across these three main series plus the Nürburgring 24 Hours, where he has won once in eight starts.[1]

Farfus's competitive standing is defined by a balanced head-to-head record against a stable of FIA Platinum-graded rivals who share his endurance racing platform. Against Alessio Rovera, a two-time champion rated significantly higher at 5,039, he has finished ahead 19 times and behind 22 times in 41 shared races; similar splits recur against Daniel Juncadella (18 ahead, 17 behind), Maxime Martin (19 ahead, 14 behind), and others of similar calibre. He has occasionally finished ahead of much stronger drivers such as Pascal Wehrlein, a two-time champion rated 7,233, winning that head-to-head five times across their races together. His career average finish of P10.3 across all classified starts reflects consistent mid-to-upper-field performance in the professional endurance ranks.[2]

Farfus remains active in 2026, competing in the WEC, GT World Challenge Europe, and IMSA WeatherTech for Team WRT and Rowe Racing; his most recent WEC rounds have yielded no wins or podiums. His seven-win record has been built with two long-term team associations, most prominently Team WRT, which has fielded him across the WEC, Asian Le Mans Series, and Bathurst 12 Hour platforms.
