Tiago Monteiro (born 24 July 1976) is a Portuguese racing driver who competed in Formula One from 2005 to 2006, and World Touring Car from 2007 to 2022.
Monteiro joined SEAT in the World Touring Car Championship in 2007, remaining with them until 2012 as he claimed several victories across his 2008 and 2010 campaigns. He switched to Honda late that year, helping them win the World Manufacturers’ Championship in 2013 and achieving his highest championship finish of third to José María López and Yvan Muller in 2016. He led the standings after 12 races in 2017 before serious injuries sustained in a testing crash ended his season. He returned full-time to the re-branded World Touring Car Cup in 2019, where he achieved victory in his home race. He contested the final three seasons of the series before its collapse at the end of 2022. During this period, he also won the Nürburgring 24 Hours in the TCR class in 2019 and 2020. We celebrate his Birthday with the Oak Racing car he drove in Le Mans 2011…
