Sergey Zlobin is a Russian racing driver who competed in the 2014 World Endurance Championship season with SMP Racing. His racing record spans seven starts across that single season, yielding three podium finishes and an average classification of fourth place. He retired from racing after 2014. His Racer Rating of 3,449 places him within the professional field typical of major endurance series; this reflects a semi-professional career at a level where drivers regularly transition from formula racing or move between top-tier sportscar categories.[1]
Zlobin's season in WEC saw him regularly compete against established professionals graded by the FIA. He finished ahead of Olivier Pla, an FIA Platinum-rated driver, once across their four shared races, and beat Roman Rusinov, an FIA Gold-graded two-time champion, on one occasion over the same number of encounters. He also registered podiums against David Brabham and Scott Sharp, both Platinum-rated professionals. However, his head-to-head records against most frequent rivals leaned negative; Matthew Howson, an FIA Silver-graded champion, outfinished him in all four races they shared, as did Richard Bradley, another FIA Gold professional. These results characterise a driver performing competently within professional endurance racing but not dominating his peer group.[2]
Zlobin had prior experience as a test driver for Minardi in Formula 1 and competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans twice during his career. His 2014 WEC campaign represented the extent of his single-seater racing record; the contemporary headlines reference discussions of an LMP2 title and a potential transition to GTE-Am for 2015, though his retirement followed that season.
