Thomas Bernacki competed in a single season of one-make racing in 2018, finishing his brief six-race campaign in the Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by Michelin with an average grid position of 8.8. He recorded no wins or podium finishes across the series. His Racer Rating of 3,142 places him among semi-professional drivers; that level describes competitors who win in pro-am and one-make classes and run mid-pack among full professionals. The fields Bernacki raced in contained established professionals and FIA-graded competitors, making his one-race victory over national-level driver Robert Noaker, a two-time champion rated 5,474, a notable result in isolation. He finished ahead of FIA Silver drivers Michael Dinan and Yuui Tsutsumi once each, though these single results do not establish a pattern of contention with that tier.[1]
Bernacki's head-to-head record against regular rivals was mixed. He finished ahead of Brian Henderson in five of six meetings, and beat Ashton Harrison in all six shared races, but struggled against stronger competition; Todd Lamb finished ahead of him in all five encounters, and both Nikko Reger and Selin Rollan outpaced him in three of their five meetings each. His most competitive results came against drivers of similar rating to his own. He raced for Copeland Motorsports, a team that has fielded 42 drivers across the index and recorded 28 race wins, with Noaker among its strongest representatives.
