Omar Balkissoon is an entry-level professional racing in multiclass championships across single-seater and GT machinery. His primary campaign is in Ferrari Challenge, where he races Ferrari 488 and 296 Challenge cars in the P, P-AM, and S classes for Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale. He has also made starts in the 24H Series endurance championship and Radical Cup NA, driving a Radical sports prototype in the latter's GOLD class.[1]
Across five seasons from 2021 to 2026, Balkissoon has amassed 34 starts with one win and ten podiums. The bulk of this record comes from Ferrari Challenge, where he has competed in 32 races since 2022, taking one win and nine podiums. He scored a podium finish in a single 24H Series GTX-class outing in 2021 with MRS GT-Racing. His current campaign is in Radical Cup NA, where he sits eighth in the championship standings after the opening rounds of what remains an incomplete season.[2]
His Ferrari Challenge record places him in a field that includes entry-level professionals and semi-professionals alongside amateurs. He regularly finishes ahead of semi-professional Michael Porter and runs closely matched with entry-level professional Brian Cook. Among stronger opposition, he has finished ahead of professional Justin Rothberg, a FIA Silver driver and multiple GT America and GT World Challenge champion, on five occasions, and has beaten entry-level professional and FIA Bronze driver Tony Davis four times.
