Francesco Dracone is a professional driver rated as FIA Silver, a grade below the full-professional tier in endurance racing. He raced in the European Le Mans Series in LMP2 prototypes for BHK Motorsport and made seven IndyCar starts across multiple seasons in the United States.[1]
His career totalled 18 starts across two series from 2010 to 2015. In IndyCar he started seven times between 2010 and 2015, raced four rounds and finished 28th in the championship standings; he ran three races on oval tracks and the remainder on road and street courses. In the European Le Mans Series he made 11 starts over two seasons from 2021 to 2022, again with BHK Motorsport, in the shared-driving LMP2 class. His record against the regular field showed him typically finishing behind established Gold-graded professionals including Philip Hanson and 2021 series champion Yifei Ye. His best result came against stronger opposition: he finished ahead of Bertrand Baguette, a Platinum-graded established professional and multiple series champion, once; and he beat 2005 IndyCar champion Dan Wheldon once in IndyCar.[2]
