Suellio Almeida will debut in the Radical Cup North America program in 2024, starting at Sebring International Raceway in a few weeks. Transitioning from sim racing to competitive racing, he chose the Radical SR3 XXR platform with RySpec Racing aiming to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans by 2028. Radical Cup North America’s Tom Drewer praised Almeida’s journey and future aspirations in motorsports. Almeida, originally a professional pianist from Brazil, shifted to coaching iRacers before venturing into real racing, becoming the Canadian champion in Porsche on iRacing in 2021.
Now, at 29, Almeida sees Radical Cup as his stepping stone to further racing success, working towards becoming a well-rounded racing champion. To support his growth, he has partnered with RySpec Racing, an Olympic athlete, and a sports psychologist. Almeida’s 2024 season begins at Sebring International Raceway, with high hopes of battling for wins and podium finishes throughout the year.
