Filip Ugran

Filip-Ioan Ugran (born 12 September 2002) is a Romanian race car driver who last competed in the 2024 European Le Mans Series with United Autosports.

[6] At the end of the year, Ugran drove in the season finale of the F4 Spanish Championship at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya with Jenzer Motorsport.

For the 2021 season, Ugran remained with Jenzer Motorsport but progressed to the FIA Formula 3 Championship, where he partnered Calan Williams.

[18][19] Ugran managed to achieve a then-best finish of 19th in race two in Budapest and Spa-Francorchamps, allowing the Romanian to move off the bottom of the table.

Ugran returned to Formula 3 for the Silverstone round of the championship, replacing Alexander Smolyar, who could not race in the United Kingdom due to Visa issues.

[35] After being left without a drive after the 2022 Euroformula Open Championship, he joined the 2022 European Le Mans Series with Algarve Pro Racing alongside Bent Viscaal for the remaining two rounds of the campaign.

Ugran's 2023 campaign would be in the FIA World Endurance Championship with Prema Racing in the LMP2 category, driving alongside Bent Viscaal and Andrea Caldarelli.

[39] Ugran had his best finish in Spa-Francorchamps, making a great start en route to fourth place, although Caldarelli was passed on older tyres while running in third.

[40] He had a complicated race during his Le Mans debut, getting stuck in a runoff area and later being hit from behind which caused damage and a lengthy thirty-minute repair in the pits.

[41] After ninth and eighth in Monza and 2023 6 Hours of Fuji respectively, a successful stint by Viscaal in Bahrain meant Ugran would get another fourth place finish.

[43] For the 2024 season, Ugran moved to United Autosports, partnering Ben Hanley and Marino Sato in the European Le Mans Series.
