Carlos Rodríguez

Carlos Rodríguez is a Uruguayan race driver for Maverick Track Performance. He started his GPGSL career in Season 6 as a test driver for Alpha Racing Team.

Born in Montevideo, Uruguay, 20th Febraury 1994. He was also a testdriver for VTR Ford at the GPGSL-3 5th Season, where he has won four races (Japanese, Malaysian, Swedish and Australian GPs) and became champion at the final round.

Driving Style
Rodríguez has defined himself as a driver who "constantly looks for the edge, and finds it against a wall". He can cope with oversteering but understeering is a real problem for him. He does not like, however, sliding through a corner during a race, because "although it looks awesome, I'm out there racing with twenty-one other guys, and sliding or blocking a wheel are things for shows. In a race, you just lose time and punish the tyres. In a show, the crowd applauds you, and that's when I enjoy doing it."

Because of his excessive speed at corners, he is prone to crashing, but he learns from his mistakes: "I'm not Andrea de Cesaris. I just try to go as fast as I can. And it works."

Future in the GPGSL
He is to remain at ART, following his promotion to Main Driver, for Season 7 alongside Rodrigo Vilela, and he will be race driver for VTR at the GPGSL-3 6th Season alongside current champion Marcus de Bruyker.
