Cédric Oltramare (born 22 June 2002) is a Swiss racing driver.[1] He competes in the European Le Mans Series, driving in the LMP3 class for Cool Racing.[2] Oltramare is a race winner in the JS2 R class of the Ligier European Series, an accolade he achieved in 2022.[3]
Oltramare made his racing debut in 2021, driving in the Ligier European Series with Cool Racing where he drove a Ligier JS2 R in the eponymous class.[4] [5] He scored five podiums and finished all 12 races, placing him fourth at the end of the season. He returned for a second year in 2022 but would retire from the first six races, which included accidents and two car-related issues.[6] [7] [8] Though he took three podiums, including a victory at Monza, Oltramare ended up sixth in the JS2 R standings.[9]
Having gained his first experience in a Ligier JS P320 prototype in July 2022, Oltramare entered the LMP3 category in 2023 by taking part in the Asian Le Mans Series.[10] Once again at Cool Racing, he and teammates Marcos Siebert and Adrien Chila finished eighth in the drivers' standings, taking a podium on Yas Island to cap off the campaign.[11] [12] This served as a precursor to Oltramare's LMP3 venture, which he continued in the Le Mans Cup alongside bronze-ranked Chila.[13] He was also originally supposed to join the team in the European Le Mans Series but was replaced by Alex García before the season opener.[14] [15]
A strong result looked on the horizon at the first race in Barcelona, but Oltramare lost the lead he'd inherited during the pit stop phase to Gillian Henrion and later faded to sixth due to two spins, having struggled to keep his car's tyres alive.[16] A retirement during the second of the Road to Le Mans races followed, before the duo finished second at Le Castellet, with the Swiss driver once again being overtaken by the #16 Virage.[17] [18] Oltramare would lose another inherited lead at Aragón where he eventually finished fourth, before a retirement and a tenth place in the final races placed him and Chila fifth in the championship.[19]
For the 2024 season, the Swiss would enter the ELMS with Cool Racing, partnering Manuel Espírito Santo and Miguel Cristóvão.[20]
