Augusto Farfus is a professional BMW works driver racing in international endurance and multiclass championships. FIA Gold-graded, he competes primarily in the World Endurance Championship and IMSA WeatherTech for Team WRT and Paul Miller Racing respectively, driving GT3 cars in the WEC's LMGT3 class. Across 20 seasons since 2005, he has accumulated 316 starts, 24 wins and 59 podiums.[1]

His most successful years came in the World Touring Car Championship between 2005 and 2010, where he scored 15 wins and 32 podiums across 131 starts for BMW Team RBM. That period established him as a front-running professional in tin-top racing. Since then he has made a career in sportscar endurance racing, with regular campaigns in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie and occasional entries in the Nürburgring 24 Hours, where he won once in 2019. His IMSA record spans a decade, yielding two wins and eight podiums from 30 starts. WEC racing since 2018 has produced one win and five podiums across 32 starts. He took a Bathurst 12 Hour victory in 2025 for Team WRT.[2]

Against the established professionals he meets regularly, Farfus runs closely matched. He has finished ahead of Andy Priaulx, the three-time World Touring Car Championship winner with 132 WTCC starts, in their encounters; he typically beats Tom Coronel, a Gold-graded endurance regular with 284 WTCC starts. He has also finished ahead of Pascal Wehrlein, the 2012 Formula 3 Euro Series champion and 2024 Formula E champion with 39 Formula 1 entries, on five occasions in multiclass endurance racing. A recent WEC win at Fuji came in 2026 shared with Darren Leung and Sean Gelael.
