Source-derived summary

Ramón Piñeiro Llagostera (born 29 October 1991 in Barcelona) is a Spanish racing driver.

Career

Formula BMW

Piñeiro began his formula racing career in 2008 in Formula BMW Europe with Fortec Motorsport. He finished twentieth in standings, taking five points-scoring positions in sixteen races. For 2009, Piñeiro remained in the series, but switched to FMS International. He again changed team to Motaworld Racing after Coloni took full control of the FMS International from Valencia onwards.

Formula Palmer Audi

After his FBMW campaign concluded in September, Piñeiro competed in the final two rounds of the Formula Palmer Audi championship at Silverstone and Snetterton. Piñeiro survived a big accident during the third of the Silverstone races. Running behind Kazim Vasiliauskas, Piñeiro picked up the slipstream from behind the Lithuanian driver's car. He clipped the rear wheel of the car after Vasiliauskas moved his car to defend into Stowe. Piñeiro was launched skywards, before landing and executing a barrel-roll before landing wheels up.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Ramón Piñeiro”, the useful work is to connect “spanish racing driver” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 30, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q966787. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1991, 2008 and 2009.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
