Joe Ghanem is an entry-level professional racing driver from Lebanon who contested the Formula Renault Eurocup in 2007 for Carlin Motorsport. His sole indexed season comprised six rounds in the single-seater championship, a field mixing amateur and semi-professional entrants with graded professionals; Ghanem finished 23rd in the season standings.[1]
In six starts against this mixed field, Ghanem regularly finished behind regular opponents such as Oliver Turvey and Tobias Hegewald, both of whom went on to establish professional careers in higher formulae. His only notable results in the indexed record came against established drivers competing at a higher level; he finished ahead of Andrea Caldarelli, now a two-time GT World Challenge Europe champion and multiple-time Le Mans winner, once across the season, and beat Stéphane Richelmi, a two-time WEC LMP2 champion, twice.[2]
