Mahaveer Raghunathan

Formula 3 At the beginning of 2015, Raghunathan took part in the final race weekend of the MRF Challenge Formula 2000 series at the Madras Motor Race Track. He then returned to Europe to take part in the European Formula 3 Championship for the Motopark team. He failed to get any points, finishing 39th in the championship. He participated in the official GP3 post season test with the Campos and Trident teams, in preparation for the 2016 GP3 Series, but he only raced in the first round of the championship for Koiranen GP. He also tested with the Coloni Motorsport team in Auto GP.

In 2017, Raghunathan continued racing in BOSS GP's Formula Class Championship races in his class. He ended the season as the champion of the Formula Class, as the only driver to compete in all of the season's races. He is the first and only Indian to win the BOSS GP Championship.

In November 2022, Raghunathan drove for Algarve Pro Racing at the rookie test in Bahrain.

FIA Formula 2 Championship Following a season in which he made just one race appearance in the Le Mans Cup, Raghunathan progressed to the FIA Formula 2 Championship in 2019, racing alongside Jordan King for MP Motorsport.

Raghunathan collected numerous penalty points throughout the season. Infringements included passing the chequered flag twice in Bahrain, failing to stop at the weighbridge during practice at Baku, overtaking a car before the safety car line in Baku, collided with Jack Aitken and left the track to gain an advantage twice at Monaco and three virtual safety car infringements at Paul Ricard. Following the French round, Raghunathan had 12 penalty points on his licence, resulting in a race ban for the Austrian round.

Raghunathan collected his only point of the season thanks to a reduced field in Italy. He finished the season 20th in the standings, scoring only a single point and being the last-placed driver among those who had scored points.

Formula One In August 2021, nearly two years after his last appearance behind the wheel of a race car, Raghunathan became the third Indian to drive a Formula One car when he tested the Alfa Romeo Racing C38 alongside Théo Pourchaire at the Hungaroring where he set a time 1.9 seconds slower than the Frenchman. In July 2023, nearly two years after his last Formula One test, Raghunathan tested a McLaren MCL35 at Portimão, but in 2025 he was successfully sued by the team for unpaid testing fees.

Italian GT Raghunathan competed in the Italian GT Endurance Championship in 2023, driving a Lamborghini Huracán GT3 for Imperiale Racing in the Pro-Am class alongside teammates Jack Bartholomew and Miguel Garcia. Raghunathan achieved his first professional career podium by coming in third at Round 3. He returned to the series in 2024, having been inducted into Aston Martin's AMR Driver Academy. He was signed by Lazarus Corse to compete in the endurance rounds of the championship alongside William Alatalo and three-time MotoGP champion Jorge Lorenzo.

In 2025, Raghunathan joined the AF Corse team in the Sprint and Endurance Championship, and finished second in the championship, winning three races and finishing eight times on the podium driving the Ferrari 296 GT3.
