FULL BIO: Bruna Tomaselli
Brazilian racing driver Bruna Tomaselli has established herself across multiple motorsport disciplines, from Formula Junior to the W Series and Brazilian Stock Car racing, demonstrating remarkable versatility and determination throughout her career.
EARLY YEARS
Bruna Alberti Tomaselli was born on September 18, 1997, in Caibi, Santa Catarina, Brazil. Her motorsport journey began early, with her professional career launching in Fórmula Junior Brasil in 2013 after two years of international karting experience.

EARLY SUCCESS
At just 16 years old, Tomaselli quickly made her mark in Formula Junior, scoring her first podium in 2013 and achieving her first win the following year when she finished fourth in the championship. Her 2016 campaign in South American Formula 4 proved particularly successful, where she secured five podium finishes including a second-place result at Rivera and four third-place finishes at Pinar. This impressive performance in junior categories demonstrated her natural talent and established a strong foundation for her racing career.

REPUTATION
Throughout her career, Bruna has built a reputation for resilience and adaptability, successfully transitioning between single-seaters and stock cars. Her improvement over time, particularly in the U.S. F2000 National Championship where she progressed to an 8th place finish by 2019, demonstrates her determination and ability to develop as a driver. Her participation in the W Series put her on the international stage, while her success in Brazilian racing series, including a podium and pole position in endurance racing, has showcased her versatility across different racing disciplines.
FUTURE GOALS/PLANS
After making her debut in the Stock Car Pro Series in 2024, Tomaselli appears poised to continue pursuing opportunities in Brazil’s premier racing series, breaking a five-year absence of female drivers in the championship.
