Manuel Rodrigues competed in the World Endurance Championship across two seasons, making two starts for Larbre Competition in 2012 and 2013. His racing record comprised a single classified finish at 48th place in the 2013 season, with no podium results. His Racer Rating of 2,893 places him in the lower tier of professional motorsport competition, reflecting limited racing activity in a series that ordinarily fields drivers of substantially stronger calibre.[1]
Despite the brevity of his WEC campaign, Rodrigues secured results against several drivers of markedly higher standing. He finished ahead of Markus Palttala, an FIA Gold-graded professional; Joël Camathias, an FIA Silver-graded professional; and Paul Daniels on their respective outings. These isolated victories offer limited insight into his comparative pace, occurring across different races and against drivers competing in the wide range of machinery and classes that WEC fielded during that period. His average finishing position across classified starts was ninth, though this figure rests on minimal sample data.
Rodrigues retired from racing following his final WEC appearance in 2013. His motorsport career remained concentrated within endurance racing at the professional level, never extending to single-seater feeder categories or other racing disciplines of broader note.
