Sérgio Sette Câmara

2014

Once he turned 16, Sette Câmara was legally able to race in the national F3 championship (Class A) in Brazil and made his debut at the 4th round at Interlagos. Although he could not quite match teammate Pedro Piquet, he finished the year in a strong 7th.

He also made his European F3 at the 2nd last round at Imola, driving for EuroInternational. Driving as guest driver and ineligible for championship points, Sette Câmara finished 14th, 20th and 21st respectively in the 3 races over the weekend.

2015

After a one-off appearance last year, Sette Câmara made his full-time debut for the 2015 season, driving for Motopark. After a rather disappointing start to the season, his luck turned for the better at Spa where he achieved his first podium in Europe where he finished 3rd. After that race, Sette Câmara went on to score more consistently than not while achieving another 3rd place at Red Bull Ring and went on to finish 14th in the championship with 57.5 points next to his name.

Masters of Formula 3

The annual meeting at Zandvoort for the Masters of F3 event was a successful one for Sette Câmara, bagging a pole position for the qualification race. In that race, he finished in 3rd place and also finished 3rd in the main race.

Macau Grand Prix

Another annual meeting for Formula 3 drivers, this time at Macau, a circuit Sette Câmara had not competed on before. His weekend started well by qualifying 7th, an impressive result for a rookie. In the qualification race, he improved 1 position to finish a respectable 6th place. In the main race, he struck trouble before finishing 22nd, last of the runners and 2 minutes off eventual winner Felix Rosenqvist. Despite the disappointing result, Sette Câmara recorded the fastest lap of the race which not only was over 1.5 seconds faster than his own fastest qualifying lap, but it's now also the outright lap record for the Macau GP circuit.

2016

Returning with Motopark for a second season, now part of the Red Bull Junior Team, the 2016 season for Sette Câmara started off with a tricky weekend at Circuit Paul Ricard with being taken out by his teammate at the first corner in race 1 being the first of a couple of problems for him but from Hungaroring onwards, Sette Câmara started to prove that he is a genuine competitor on the track by performing some top quality overtaking maneuvers and consistently finishing in the points paying positions including podiums at Pau and Red Bull Ring. Unfortunately Sette Câmara's second half of the season consisted of no luck for him: had so many high grid position placings, including a pole position, taken away from him due to grid penalties and suffered other problems, including a drive through penalty whilst running in 2nd place at Hockenheim, as well. He finished 11th in the championship at seasons end but that didn't justify the pace he had all year.

Masters of Formula 3

Like last year's event, Sette Câmara enjoyed success at the Zandvoort event. After qualifying 7th for the qualification race, he ended finishing 5th in that race and then in the main race, Sette Câmara finished 3rd once again to top off a successful outing.

Macau Grand Prix

Returning after a record breaking race weekend for him in last year's event, Sette Câmara came into the event with Carlin, a team he had never raced with previously. With past winner Antonio Felix da Costa and rising stars Jake Hughes and Lando Norris as his teammates, Sette Câmara was not going to have it easy. He showed his strong form by qualifying in 4th place, just one place behind da Costa. In the qualification race, Sette Câmara made up 1 place in the race to finish 3rd behind da Costa and former Red Bull Junior Callum Ilott. For the main race, Sette Câmara held the lead for half of the race in strong fashion until Nikita Mazepin crashed and brought out the safety car. Once the safety car came in, he was immediately pressured by da Costa and lost the lead in an epic duel between them and Felix Rosenqvist, reigning and 2 time winner of this event, also snuck by Sette Câmara after putting extreme pressure on and Sette Câmara held onto 3rd place at the end of the race to take a podium in one of the most prestigious events in world motorsport, finishing behind now 2 time winner da Costa and Rosenqvist.

Toyota Racing Series

Sette Câmara made his debut in 2015 after replacing Dzhon Simonyan at Taupo. He ended the season with 199 points next to his name and placed 20th overall.

FIA Formula 2 Championship

In November 2016, Câmara was confirmed to be stepping up to FIA Formula 2 Championship with MP Motorsport.

Formula One

After a difficult but surprising F3 campaign in 2015 and for his very convincing pace at the Masters of F3 and Macau Grand Prix events that same year, Red Bull acquired his services by signing him to the Red Bull Junior Team.

After his first taste of F1 machinery in a demo run at Motorland Aragón, he made his official test debut with Toro Rosso after the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

At the start of 2017, Sette Câmara was dropped from the Red Bull Junior Team program.
