Francesco Braschi (born 27 November 2004) is an Italian racing driver who currently competes in the Porsche Supercup as well as the Porsche Carrera Cup Italia. He was previously active in single-seaters, winning two races in the inaugural Eurocup-3 season.[1]

Early career

[edit]

Formula 4

[edit]

After several tests, Braschi made his car racing debut in the 2020 Italian F4 Championship with Jenzer Motorsport from round 4, partnering Santiago Ramos.[2] He finished 35th in the standings. After driving in the F4 UAE series at the start of 2021, Braschi would remain at Jenzer in Italian F4, finishing 16th in the standings with a best race finish of fifth.[3] He also competed in two rounds of ADAC F4 as a guest entrant and drove in the Spanish F4 season opener.[4]

Formula Regional & Eurocup-3

[edit]

Moving up to the Formula Regional category in 2022, the Italian would first drive in three rounds of the Formula Regional Asian Championship with 3Y by R-ace GP. Thanks to two points finishes at Dubai Braschi ended up 22nd in the standings.[5] Subsequently, Braschi joined KIC Motorsport at the start of the Formula Regional European season.[6][7] However, he would leave the team after a scoreless first half of the campaign, moving to MP Motorsport for a round to replace the injured Dilano van 't Hoff.[8] From the round at Spa onward Braschi would join FA Racing by MP, for whom he scored a lone point near the end of the year, thereby placing himself 26th overall.[9][10]

After contesting the opening two events of the FRMEC championship in the winter of 2023, Braschi joined the newly-founded Eurocup-3 series with Campos Racing during the main season.[11][12] He began the year well, scoring successive podiums in the first four races, including taking the first win in series history at Spa.[1] He would fall behind teammate Esteban Masson and other title contenders soon after though, only taking one further victory at Jerez and a second place at Estoril to finish fifth in the standings.[13][14]

Sportscar career

[edit]

Porsche Cup

[edit]

Braschi made his sportscar debut in 2023, competing for Dinamic Motorsport in two rounds of the Porsche Carrera Cup Italy. He would make the Porsche series his home in 2024, as the Italian embarked on a double campaign in both the PCCI and the main Porsche Supercup, both of which he contested with Dinamic.[15]
