Gabriel Bortoleto Oliveira (Portuguese pronunciation: [ɡa.bɾiˈɛw boʁ.tuˈlɛ.tu o.liˈve(j).ɾɐ]; born 14 October 2004) is a Brazilian racing driver, currently competing in the FIA Formula 2 Championship for Invicta.

Born and raised in São Paulo, Bortoleto began competitive kart racing aged seven, winning multiple national titles and graduating to junior formulae in 2020. A protégé of two-time Formula One World Champion Fernando Alonso, Bortoleto won his first title at the 2023 FIA Formula 3 Championship with Trident. Having also been a race winner in Italian F4 and the Formula Regional European Championship, Bortoleto progressed to Formula 2 in 2024. At the Monza feature race that year, Bortoleto received widespread acclaim for his win from last on the grid, becoming the first driver to do so in either Formula 2 or Formula One.

A member of the McLaren Driver Development Programme from 2023 to 2024, Bortoleto completed his first Formula One test at the Red Bull Ring in September 2024, driving the McLaren MCL36. He is set to join Sauber in Formula One for the 2025 season onwards, ahead of their acquisition by Audi in 2026.^[1]
