Caio Jotta Collet (born 3 April 2002) is a Brazilian racing driver who is currently competing in Indy NXT, driving for HMD Motorsports.

Collet began his career in karting at the age of seven, claiming multiple titles in his native Brazil, before moving to Europe where his performances led him to being signed to the Birel ART team in 2016 and eventually Nicolas Todt's All Road Management scheme.

The race ended with Collet first, title rival Arthur Leclerc second and guest driver Alessandro Ghiretti finished third.

In the reverse grid race Collet started 10th due to his win the round previously where he climbed through the field to finish fifth between Ulysse de Pauw and Leclerc.

[10] Collet collected 303.5 points that season along with 11 podiums and 3 pole positions, he finished with 66.5 more than closest championship rival Ugo de Wilde.

[18] The next few rounds would see first and second-place finishes from Collet and Martins at Magny-Cours and Zandvoort respectively,[19][20][21] however, at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya the Frenchman was able to regain control of the championship with two victories.

[22] The seventh event of the season at Spa-Francorchamps was even worse for Collet's title hopes, as, for the first time in four rounds he didn't end up on the rostrum, whilst his rival did.

[23] In round eight at Imola Collet bounced back and won race one, but was taken out from second place on the first lap by David Vidales, losing more ground to the French ART driver.

[33] In October 2020, Collet joined the post-season test at Catalunya partaking with MP Motorsport on the second day and achieving a P10 finish in the afternoon session.

[34][35] Later that month, Collet joined reigning team champions Prema Racing for the first day of the second post-season test at Jerez.

[36] On 10 February 2021, it was announced that Collet would race for MP Motorsport in the 2021 season, partnering Formula Renault title rival Victor Martins and Dutchman Tijmen van der Helm.

Just like the previous round, his Saturday was disappointing, a track limits penalty demoted him from sixth in the first race, and a mistake costed him points in the second.

[43] In the feature race, Collet stalled once again, but made a sterling drive, climbing to seventh place by the chequered flag.

[55] After qualifying ninth in Imola, Collet claimed the lead of the sprint race early on, but was overtaken on the final lap by Franco Colapinto.

[60] After failing to score in the sprint, Collet secured fourth place in the feature race, having lost the final podium position to Oliver Bearman on the penultimate lap.

[66][67] After scoring a point in the sprint race, Collet battled with Maloney for the lead on the opening lap, where he went off-track and rejoined unsafely, earning him a five-second penalty.

[71] In Monza, Collet started second in the sprint race, and managed to finish third after passing Jonny Edgar on the penultimate lap.

[73] Despite not appearing in the previous year's post-season test, Collet switched to Van Amersfoort Racing for his third Formula 3 season in 2023.

[90] In October 2023, Collet took part in the Indy NXT's Chris Griffis Memorial Test at Indianapolis, driving for HMD Motorsports.

[91] After partaking in two more pre-season tests with the team at Barber Motorsports Park and Sebring, he was announced as the final addition to HMD's nine-driver lineup for the 2024 season.

[92] Starting the campaign with top 10 finishes, Collet did not take long to earn his maiden podium in the series with a third place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

[109][110] Collet opted not to remain in the Nissan reserve driver role for 2025, stating that he preferred to solely focus on his main Indy NXT campaign.

[113] Collet was born in São Paulo and labelled late three-time Formula One champion Ayrton Senna as his racing hero.
