Paulo Lima is a developing amateur driver whose Racer Rating of 1,013 places him at the entry level of club racing; this is the tier for drivers who are consistently at the back of club fields or have too few races on record to have moved off the entry level. His record consists of two starts in American Endurance Racing during 2026, yielding one podium finish and an average finishing position of second. The biographical background suggests a much more experienced racing history elsewhere, but the authoritative record shows only these two starts on file.[1]
In his limited racing on this index, Lima has finished ahead of several competitors, including Michael Qiao (1,621, a competitive amateur), Nolan Ruocco (1,570, a competitive amateur), and Zachariah Rosenberg (1,344, also at developing level). These are isolated results from a two-race sample rather than established patterns, but they do indicate that Lima produced at least one strong performance in his American Endurance Racing entry. His podium finish came in round two of the series, leaving him classified 59th overall in the championship standings.[2]
