Robert Mikhailovich Shwartzman (Hebrew: רוברט מיכאילוביץ' שוורצמן; Russian: Ро́берт Миха́йлович Шва́рцман, pronounced [ˈrobʲɪrt mʲɪˈxajləvʲɪtɕ ˈʂvartsmən]; born 16 September 1999) is an Israeli and Russian racing driver who last competed in the IndyCar Series, driving the No. 83 Chevrolet for Prema Racing.

Shwartzman previously competed in the FIA Formula 2 Championship in 2020 and 2021 where he finished 4th and 2nd respectively. He is a former member of the Ferrari Driver Academy, and is the 2018 Toyota Racing Series and 2019 FIA Formula 3 champion. He also served as a reserve driver for Ferrari in Formula One between 2021 and 2024.

Shwartzman was born on 16 September 1999 in Tel Aviv, Israel. He was raised in Saint Petersburg and Italy. His father, Mikhail Shwartzman, died in 2020.

In 2023, Shwartzman released a rap song titled "ACTIVE".

Shwartzman began karting in 2004 at the age of four. Throughout a seven-year career of karting professionally, he claimed karting titles across Europe (predominantly in Italy).

In 2014, Shwartzman graduated to single-seaters, partaking in six races of the Italian F4 Championship with Cram Motorsport. He finished in the points four times out of the six, to rank sixteenth overall with 26 points.[citation needed]

The following year, Shwartzman partook in the championship full-time with Mücke Motorsport. Shwartzman claimed his first single-seater podium at just the first race at Vallelunga. He later took his maiden wins at Adria. Overall, Shwartzman claimed three wins and finished third in the standings with 212 points behind the Prema Powerteam duo of Ralf Aron and Guanyu Zhou.

During that year, Shwartzman also partook in the inaugural ADAC Formula 4 championship. He had a run of six consecutive podiums but did not record a win. He was unable to finish the season, but finished fourth in the standings.
