Dominguez finished 3rd in the 2015 Auto GP World Series with Euronova Racing, having finished behind champion Tamás Pál Kiss and Kevin Giovesi. He won the second race at the Hungaroring and the first race at Brno, scoring a handful of podiums otherwise. He did not return for a second season.

Although hoping for a full time drive, the best Herberto could find at first was a reserve driver role at [[Nurminen Racing Engineering|NRE]] in [[F3RWRS]], however luck would come his way as they agreed to loan him to [[Aurico Autosport]] for a full time seat; Aurico were new to the series. His first race in Adelaide ended well as Dominguez finished 8th despite a large number of retirements. The next three races yielded no points, although he made up for this in Italy with an impressive drive to 14th after starting 38th.
 
Due to disputes with the F3RWRS commission, Aurico were removed from the series after the Pau SuperPrix. However, Dominguez didn't have to wait long for another seat; after [[Ragnar Larsen]] was sacked by [[Nurminen Racing Engineering]], the Andorran was the first choice to replace the Swede owing to the previous reserve contract between both parties.

He also agreed to drive for [[Melrose Racing Team|MRT]] in the third [[IFRC]] round at Pau continuing their policy of having a different driver each round. A gearbox failure on lap 7 ended his day after qualifying a lowly 17th and not allowing the Andorran to qualify for the feature race.

'''Herberto Dominguez''' (born 11th October 1995) is a racing driver, currently racing for [[Aurico Autosport|Aurico]] in the [[2016 Formula 3 Rejects World Race Series season]] whilst also acting as test driver for [[Nurminen Racing Engineering]]. He is known for being Andorra's first RWRS driver and is the reigning Auto GP champion.
In 2017, Dominguez parted from his management company and joined the Astro Racing Stars program. He stayed in F3RWRS for another season, partnering [[David Graham]] at [[Nebula Grand Prix]].
=Career=
==Auto GP==
Herberto was crowned 2015 champion driving for Ombra Racing after edging out Narain Karthikeyan at the final race, he collected 8 podiums including 5 wins on his way to the title. He would not defend his title for 2016 as he looked to move to RWRS.
==2016==
===[[2016 Formula 3 Rejects World Race Series season|F3RWRS]]===
Although hoping for a full time drive, the best Herberto could find at first was a test/reserve driver role at [[Nurminen Racing Engineering|NRE]] in F3, however luck would come his way as they agreed to loan him to [[Aurico Autosport]] for a full time seat, with the team new to F3 Dominguez knew that they would need patience and didn't expect great results right away. He finished the 2 pre-season tests 21st and 33rd respectively. His first race in Adelaide ended surprisingly well as he finished 8th, though there were alot of retirements. The next 3 races yielded no points, although he made up for this in Italy with an impressive drive to 14th after starting 38th, one place lower than his finishing position in race 2.


Unfortunately Aurico was kickced out of the series after Pau, luckily for Dominguez he had done well enough for NRE to move him into a race seat after [[Ragnar Larsen]] was sacked.
== Racing Record ==
===[[2016 International Formula Reject Challenge season|IFRC]]===
Dominguez tested for [[Tarantino Autosport|Tarantino]] in the pre-season test. He was 9th.


He also agreed to drive for [[Melrose Racing Team|MRT]] in the 3rd round, continuing their policy of having a different driver each round. A gearbox failure on lap 7 ended his day after qualifying a lowly 17th. This meant failure to qualify for the feature race.
===[[2016 F1 Rejects Dragster Festival|Dragster Festival]]===
Dominguez also took part in the F1 Rejects Dragster Festival. He was 3rd in his Quarterfinal but was 6th in his Semifinal, meaning he didn't make the Final.

2016-2017: F3RWRS

Although hoping for a full time drive, the best Herberto could find at first was a reserve driver role at NRE in F3RWRS, however luck would come his way as they agreed to loan him to Aurico Autosport for a full time seat; Aurico were new to the series. His first race in Adelaide ended well as Dominguez finished 8th despite a large number of retirements. The next three races yielded no points, although he made up for this in Italy with an impressive drive to 14th after starting 38th.

Due to disputes with the F3RWRS commission, Aurico were removed from the series after the Pau SuperPrix. However, Dominguez didn't have to wait long for another seat; after Ragnar Larsen was sacked by Nurminen Racing Engineering, the Andorran was the first choice to replace the Swede owing to the previous reserve contract between both parties.

He also agreed to drive for MRT in the third IFRC round at Pau continuing their policy of having a different driver each round. A gearbox failure on lap 7 ended his day after qualifying a lowly 17th and not allowing the Andorran to qualify for the feature race.

In 2017, Dominguez parted from his management company and joined the Astro Racing Stars program. He stayed in F3RWRS for another season, partnering David Graham at Nebula Grand Prix.
