August Raber (born 9 March 2009) is an Emirati-based Swedish racing driver who competes in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup for Brutal Fish by Campos.
Career Karting and single-seaters (2017–2026) Born in Sweden, Raber had his first taste of karting at the age of eight at Kristianstad, but waited until the age of 13 to begin karting on a competitive basis. After racing with Xcel Motorsport during his brief stint in competitive karts, Raber joined them for his step-up to single-seaters in 2024, in the F4 British Championship. In his rookie season, which was disrupted by a hand injury at Thruxton, Raber took a best result of ninth in the reverse-grid race at Brands Hatch to end the year 21st in the overall standings.
In late 2024, Raber joined Yas Heat Racing to compete in that year's Formula Trophy UAE and the F4 Middle East Championship. In the former, Raber scored his first career podium at the season-ending race at Yas Marina en route to an 11th-place points finish. In F4 Middle East, Raber took his maiden career win in the reverse-grid race of the second Yas Marina round, and scored an additional podium at Lusail to take eighth in points.
Returning to the F4 British Championship for the rest of 2025, Raber switched to Phinsys by Argenti for his second season in the series. After scoring two wins at Donington Park and a lone win at Snetterton to take an early championship lead, Raber then only scored four other podiums in the remaining rounds as he slipped to seventh by the end of the season. During 2025, Raber also competed for Argenti with Prema in the Silverstone and Monza rounds of the GB3 Championship. In early 2026, Raber joined Pinnacle Motorsport to compete in the four-round Formula Regional Middle East Trophy, taking a best result of 19th at Dubai and finishing last in points.
Sportscars (2025–) In late 2025, Raber made his debut in sportscar racing, competing at the Gulf 12 Hours for Porsche-fielding Car Collection Motorsport, finishing sixth among the Pro-Am entries. Following his FRMET campaign, Raber ventured to sportscars full-time for the rest of 2026, joining Brutal Fish by Campos to compete in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup alongside Arthur Rogeon. After retiring in the first two races, Raber scored his maiden win at the Road to Le Mans from pole.
