Donald Steele competed in the Lucas Oil Formula Car Race Series in 2018, completing four starts without a win or podium finish. His racer rating of 1,878 places him in the club racing band; this represents competitive amateur level, drivers who race at the entry end of professional racing or in regional club fields against a mix of amateurs and semi-professionals. Steele's average finish across his starts was seventh.[1]
Steele's record against his most frequent rivals was mixed. He raced four times against Jeff Stern, the 2019 Lucas Oil Formula Car Race Series Masters champion, finishing ahead of him twice and behind him twice. Against Gus Doppes, a weaker driver in the field, Steele finished ahead once but behind three times, a head-to-head record that favoured Doppes. Steele did take occasional results against drivers stronger than Doppes; he beat Gary Vizioli, Quentin Wahl, and Dom Bastien once each, though these isolated results do not establish a pattern of competitive advantage over stronger drivers in the field.
Steele has since retired from racing. His career on record spans only 2018, a single season with limited activity.
