Guilherme Moura de Oliveira (born 7 January 2005) is aPortugueseracing driver currently competing in theGT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup with Garage 59.
Near the end of 2020, Oliveira made his car racing debut, competing in the penultimate round of theF4 Spanish Championship withDrivex. He finished all three races in the top ten, with a best result of fourth in Race 2, but was unable to score points due to his status as a guest driver
Oliveira returned toSpanish F4 the following year, once again racing forDrivex alongside Maksim Arkhangelskiy, Branden Lee Oxley, Noam Abramczyk and Lola Lovinfosse. After a disappointing opening round inSpa-Francorchamps, the Portuguese driver took his first points inNavarra.[1] Having withdrawn from his home round atPortimão due to COVID-19, Oliveira bounced back by scoring his maiden podium in Race 3 atAragón, after defending successfully from eventual championDilano van 't Hoff.[2][3] He ended his season with a pair of points finishes atJerez andBarcelona respectively, which left him 13th in the drivers' standings.
In October 2021, Oliveira competed with Racing Experience in the season finale of theEuropean Le Mans Series, driving in theLMP3 category.[4]
At the start of the following year, it was announced that he would be teaming up withInter Europol Competition for the four-round longAsian Le Mans Series.[5] Despite the team's struggles, exemplified by their failure to score a single podium during the campaign, Oliveira remained with Inter Europol for theEuropean Le Mans Series, partneringCharles Crews andNico Pino.[6][7] Their season started out with a second place atLe Castellet, however the outfit would be disqualified from the results, after the Belleville washers in the differential of the car were found to not have complied with the championship's regulations during post-race scrutineering.[8][9] The team struggled atImola, having to settle for an eighth-placed finish after an early collision with a GTE car,[10] but Oliveira and his teammates would score their first victory of the season inMonza, where the Portuguese driver took the lead during the final stint, crossing the line for his maiden win in car racing.[11][12] The positive momentum continued as the squad won again atBarcelona, with Oliveira managing to build up enough of a gap on his rivals to make up for a ten-second time penalty.[13][14] Oliveira, Pino and Crews capped off their winning streak atSpa, dominating the race and winning with a margin of 41 seconds, which put the team first in the championship going into the season finale inPortimão.[15][16] However, a collision between Pino and theLMP2 car ofMathias Beche put Inter Europol on the back foot, with their title assault eventually ending mere laps before the finish when Oliveira hit the No. 95TF Sport Aston Martin after exiting the pitlane, as the steering of Oliveira's car seized.[17][18] The team finished second in the standings, seven points behind the No. 17 Cool Racing car.[19]
Oliveira began his 2023 season by competing in the24 Hours of Daytona with MRS GT-Racing in the LMP3 class, partneringSebastián Álvarez,Danial Frost and Alex Vogel.[20]
