🇧🇷 Ricardo Rosset

Ricardo Rosset is an established professional who raced single-seaters in the 1990s and made a brief return to domestic motorsport in Brazil. His primary career was in Formula 1, where he drove for Tyrrell across three seasons from 1996 to 1998, making 27 starts without scoring points.[1]

Rosset's path to Formula 1 ran through International Formula 3000, where he took two wins and three podiums across eight starts in 1995 and finished runner-up in the championship. He raced Formula 3 Macau on six occasions from 1993 to 1994. His Formula 1 career yielded no championship points, and he finished behind regular opponents Jacques Villeneuve and Rubens Barrichello. In a single Stock Car Pro Series start in 2015, he finished 34th in the season standings.[2]

Against the grid of established professionals he faced in both Formula 3000 and Formula 1, Rosset finished ahead of Michael Schumacher once and Gerhard Berger once. His record at Tyrrell, which fielded 11 drivers across its indexed history without a race win, places him alongside other drivers working through a non-competitive team during Formula 1's mid-1990s.
