Félix Porteiro Pérez (born 26 August 1983 in Castellón, Spain) is a former Spanish racing driver. He took part in the GP2 Series during the 2006 season, achieving a highest race result of sixth place; notably, he initially finished second at Silverstone before being disqualified due to a non-compliant steering rack.

Single-seater competition

Porteiro began his single-seater racing career in 2001, competing in the Spanish Formula Three Championship where he secured fourth place overall and recorded one victory. Starting in 2002, he participated in the World Series by Nissan, finishing 18th in his debut year. He improved to 14th position in 2003, climbed to seventh place in 2004, and achieved fifth overall in 2005 when the series transitioned into Formula Renault 3.5. In 2006, Porteiro advanced to the GP2 Series, driving for Campos Racing, and concluded the season ranked 22nd.

Touring car racing

Porteiro made his touring car debut late in 2006, piloting a BMW 320si for ROAL Motorsport at the European Touring Car Cup, where he finished fifth. This performance earned him a full-time drive with BMW Team Italy-Spain in the World Touring Car Championship for the following year. In 2007, he secured his maiden victory at Brno and ended the season twelfth in the championship standings. The subsequent year, Porteiro obtained another win at Oschersleben and improved to tenth overall.

In 2009, he transferred to the independent squad Proteam Motorsport, swapping seats with fellow Spanish driver Sergio Hernández. That year, Porteiro finished as runner-up in the Independent's Trophy. He did not compete in 2010 after Hernández returned to Proteam following ROAL Motorsport’s withdrawal from the WTCC.
