🇨🇦 Gabriel Casagrande

Gabriel Casagrande is an established professional racing primarily in the Stock Car Pro Series, Brazil's national single-seater championship, where he drives the No. 83 Chevrolet Cruze for A. Mattheis Vogel Motorsport. FIA Silver graded, he competes at a level between semi-professional and full-time professional in endurance racing; in the Stock Car Pro Series he races among a mixed field of amateurs and professionals. He has been active for 14 seasons since 2012, beginning in European single-seaters before establishing himself as a full-time competitor in Brazil's premier touring series.[1]

Casagrande won the Stock Car Pro Series championship in 2021 with Vogel Motorsport and has compiled 9 wins and 42 podiums across 246 starts in that series through 2025. He has also made two appearances in IMSA WeatherTech, racing in the GTDPRO class in shared-car endurance racing, and spent one season in Formula Renault Eurocup in 2012. This season, 2026, he sits fourth in the Stock Car Pro Series standings with one podium from 13 rounds run so far, still competing for the championship as the calendar continues.[2]

In the Stock Car Pro Series, Casagrande races regularly against established professionals such as Júlio Campos and Rafael Suzuki, both FIA Silver graded drivers with roughly equal tenure in the series; the three are closely matched across multiple seasons. His career has included starts against elite international professionals; he finished ahead of Pierre Gasly, the 2013 Formula Renault Eurocup champion, and Esteban Ocon, who won the 2014 FIA Formula 3 European Championship and the 2015 GP3 Series, in single-seater competition, though these meetings were isolated rather than regular matchups.
