Carl Forberg was an American racing driver whose competition career consisted of a single Formula 1 start in 1951. He entered the season-opening race for Kurtis Kraft but finished twentieth and did not contest any further grands prix. His one outing placed him on the same grid as Duane Carter, a professional-level competitor, though Forberg did not finish ahead of him in that meeting.[1]

The record shows Forberg raced once and retired from professional motorsport thereafter. His rating of 2,969 reflects the minimal data available from that single appearance against a field of established drivers of the period. No further competitive activity has been recorded in the years since.
