Andres Castillo

Andres Castillo is a Mexican-American Formula D driver currently racing for the Wright FD team.

Early Career
Castillo entered the world of karting through a local league in Austin, Texas. After a string of successes, the young man was recruited by Maxwell Autosport in the USF3500 series. Using this as a stepping stone, he moved up through Pro Maruyama, showing strong results in his first season by coming in third on a grid of 17 cars.

Season 2
Castillo was recruited by Wright FD at the start of the second season of the Formula D World Championship. Wright had kept a careful eye on up-and-comings throughout the American open-wheeled racing series, and they opted to hire Castillo as one of two test drivers. However, starting at Monza, Castillo found himself in the seat after Wright's decision to remove Clint Hurdle and Mariana Castro from their cars. Castillo converted a pole position to a strong first place. The following two races showed promise, but a bad qualifying and retirement in America slowed down progress. Castillo continued to place poorly until Canada, then won the team's home race at Indianapolis. Castillo went on to win in Japan, pushing himself above teammate Hossein Esfandiari and helping to secure Wright's second place in the Constructors Championship.
