Ian Barberi is a competitive amateur racing at the club and regional level, with a Racer Rating of 2,547. This places him among drivers who compete regularly in club racing and entry-level professional-am fields, typically self-funded and racing against a mix of amateurs and lower-tier professionals rather than among full-time professionals at the top level. Across 16 starts between 2021 and 2026, Barberi has recorded 4 wins and 12 podiums, finishing on average in second place when classified; his most recent activity is in the 2026 Zenith Racing Series, where he has taken 1 win and 5 podiums in 7 rounds with NineFour Motorsports.[1]
Barberi's record shows consistent mid-pack performance against peers of similar rating. His head-to-head record against his most frequent rivals is largely even; he holds marginal advantages over Reid Garton, Aj Alsup, and Clark Cambern, all drivers in the competitive-amateur band, while finishing behind FIA Silver graded driver Dominic Starkweather in all four shared races. More notably, Barberi has occasionally beaten stronger drivers, including two finishes ahead of FIA Bronze graded Aristotle Balogh and isolated results against former champions Mark Boden and Colin Garrett, though these remain isolated instances rather than patterns of dominance.
The bulk of Barberi's racing has taken place in SCCA Majors between 2021 and 2023, where he scored 3 wins and 7 podiums in 7 starts. His recent move to the Zenith Racing Series represents his most active season on record, and he finished that championship in first place overall, indicating a competitive position within that field despite maintaining his rating in the amateur band.
