Rui Andrade is an Angolan-Portuguese racing driver who competes in the FIA World Endurance Championship, currently driving for Iron Lynx. Over the course of his career he has made 52 starts, recording 7 wins and 18 podium finishes, and he claimed a championship title in 2023. His path into international sports car racing has established him as one of the more prominent Angolan names in endurance competition, and he remains an active participant in the series at present.[1]
Currently holding a Racer Rating of 3,700, which places him 908th among active drivers on that scale, Andrade sits well below the sport's elite benchmark of 10,000 to 11,500, reflecting a career built more on steady participation than dominant recent form. His 2026 season has been modest so far, with no wins or podiums through three rounds and a standing of P89. Despite this quieter start to the current campaign, his career tally of seven victories and a championship crown in 2023 underline a solid body of work in the WEC, and his continued presence with Iron Lynx keeps him among the active field of competitors in the championship.[2]
