Laurindo Coelho

Laurindo Coelho (born July 4th, 1987) is a Portuguese racing driver.

After a fairly unremarkable start to his international racing career in 2016, Coelho found himself on the sidelines ahead of the 2018 season.

Coelho gambled on an entry into the 2018 Race of Rejects, in which he shockingly won - beating the likes of Akira Yamamura, Diego Pereira and Evgeny Restov on his path to success.

This unexpected result saw Coelho join the Best In The World management group - which immediately saw him join Skoda's works IPC outfit. He had a fairly steady season before the series' collapse in mid-2018 - finishing the season in 11th overall in Class A.

Coelho also took part in the 3 Hours of Fuji race for the JLD Motorsport squad. This one-off appearance lead to him joining the works BMW LMP squad for the 2019 FIA Endurance Challenge.
