Racing Career
Moreira raced for Fusion Motorsports in the 2015 F3RWRS season, partnering Marko Jantscher. Moreira was unable to match his highly-rated team-mate through the season, managing just three points before losing his seat to Stefan Kuntz.
Electing to ditch single-seaters in favour of endurance events, and joined the new Pulsar Racing Team in the Siemens Ausdauer Reject Series. Moreira joined Anita Horford and Alexandre Prémat in the #7 car, winning the RTBF Belgian Grand Prix.
Moreira moved to the GT-Rejects World Championship for 2017 with Pulsar, piloting a Chevrolet Corvette C5.R with Cezary Samelko with limited success. Preferring the endurance format, Moreira joined the new FIA Prototype Challenge with Scuderia Adriatica. Adriatica had formed a partnership with Subaru, and the Japanese marque had input within the design of the Adriatica chassis as well as supplying a novel boxer engine. However, the overall package proved incredibly problematic, ensuring that Moreira would trouble the scorers only once.
