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
F3RWRS
Although hoping for a full time drive, the best Herberto could find at first was a test/reserve driver role at 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.
IFRC
Dominguez tested for Tarantino in the pre-season test. He was 9th.
He also agreed to drive for 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.
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.
