Luiz Pereira Bueno (born January 16, 1937 in São Paulo ; † February 8, 2011 there ) was a Brazilian racing car driver .

Career

Bueno, two-time Brazilian touring car champion in the 1960s, came to Great Britain in 1969 to enter the British Formula Ford Championship . The talented Bueno, who won the 1000 km from Brazil together with Luiz Terra Smith in a Renault Alpine A110 in 1967 , won five races, but returned to his homeland in 1970 to drive touring car races again.

In Brazil at the beginning of the 1970s, Bueno was considered the second great young talent next to Emerson Fittipaldi and a successful future seemed open to him. But he persistently refused to come to Europe again. So he was denied an international career.

Bueno took part in two Formula 1 races. He made his debut at the 1972 Brazilian Grand Prix , a race that did not have world championship status. Bueno started alongside Ronnie Peterson for the March factory team in a March 721 . He qualified for tenth place on the grid and finished sixth.

Buenos Aires' second Formula 1 race was the 1973 Brazilian Grand Prix . Unlike the previous year, the race was a Formula 1 World Championship run. Bueno drove a TS9 the Surtees - factory teams . Starting the race from 20th and last place on the grid, he finished twelfth, four laps behind the winner Emerson Fittipaldi and his Lotus 72 .
