Born and raised in [[Barcelona]], De la Rosa began his career in [[radio-controlled car|radio-controlled racing]], winning several national and continental titles before moving into [[kart racing|karting]] aged 17. He participated in 107 Grands Prix for the [[Arrows Grand Prix International|Arrows]], [[Jaguar Racing|Jaguar]], [[McLaren]], [[Sauber Motorsport|Sauber]] and [[HRT Formula 1 Team|HRT]] teams. He made his Formula One debut at the [[1999 Australian Grand Prix]], scoring a point in his first race. He scored a total of 35 championship points, which includes a podium finish at the [[2006 Hungarian Grand Prix]].

Upon retiring from motor racing, de la Rosa became a [[sports commentator|commentator]] and [[color commentator|pundit]] for [[La Sexta]], [[Telecinco]], [[Movistar]] and [[DAZN]].

He has also been an ambassador for [[Aston Martin in Formula One|Aston Martin]] since 2022.

==Early career==
De la Rosa was born in [[Barcelona]], [[Catalonia]], Spain, and unlike most drivers, he started his career in [[radio-controlled car]]s, specialising in 1:8 off-road. He won three consecutive domestic championship titles between 1983 and 1985,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ymr.no/historie.htm|title=Modellbilens historie|access-date=3 January 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.neobuggy.net/champions/spanish-champions/|title=Spanish Champions|publisher=neobuggy|access-date=3 January 2016|archive-date=5 May 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180505222921/http://www.neobuggy.net/champions/spanish-champions/|url-status=dead}}</ref> he became the first multiple [[European Federation of Radio Operated Model Automobiles|European]] radio controlled off-road championship twice in 1983 and 1984<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.liverc.com/news/special_features/8372-TALK_IT_UP_TUESDAY%3A_Defending_champion_Robert_Batlle/|title=TALK IT UP TUESDAY: Defending champion Robert Batlle|publisher=LiveRC|access-date=3 January 2016}}</ref><ref name="efra">{{cite web|url=http://www.efra.ws/news/report/2005_EFRA_Race-History.pdf |title=30+ Years of EFRA Race History |access-date=17 August 2012 |work=EFRA |publisher=European Federation of Radio-Operated Model Automobiles |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120213174316/http://www.efra.ws/news/report/2005_EFRA_Race-History.pdf |archive-date=13 February 2012 }}</ref> and was runner up in the inaugural [[IFMAR 1:8 IC Off-Road World Championship|world championship]] in 1986.<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Dauriac |first=Ch. |issue=15 |date=September 1986 |trans-title=Grenoble 86 Off-Road World Championship |title=Grenoble 86 championnat du monde TT 1/8e|language=fr |url=https://www.scribd.com/doc/79604521/Champion-Nat-Du-Monde-TT-Thermique-1986-8-sept86-15 |magazine=Auto8 |access-date=17 August 2012 }}</ref> It was only after that when he started [[karting]] in a local Spanish championship in 1988 when he was 17. He then joined the Spanish Formula Fiat Uno and became champion in 1989.

==Professional career==
In 1990, De la Rosa raced in Spanish [[Formula Ford]] 1600 and became champion. He later drove in British [[Formula Ford]] 1600 and got two podiums out of six races. In 1991, De la Rosa achieved fourth place in the Spanish Formula Renault Championship with three podium finishes. In 1992 he was both European and British Formula Renault champion. He slipped down the order in the next two years. In 1995, he was champion of the [[All-Japan Formula Three|Japanese Formula Three]] series and third in the [[Macau Grand Prix]]. In 1996, he finished 8th in both the [[Formula Nippon]] and [[Super GT|All Japan GT Championship]]. The next year he was champion in Formula Nippon. He was also the All Japan GT Champion with [[Michael Krumm]].

===Arrows (1999–2000)===
[[File:Pedro de la Rosa 2000 Belgian.jpg|thumb|left|De la Rosa driving for [[Arrows Grand Prix International|Arrows]] at the [[2000 Belgian Grand Prix]]]]
In {{F1|1998}}, De la Rosa was a test driver for [[Jordan Grand Prix|Jordan]]. The next year, he joined [[Arrows Grand Prix International|Arrows]] and scored one world championship point by finishing sixth in his debut race, the {{F1 GP|1999|Australian}}. He regularly out-paced his more experienced teammate [[Toranosuke Takagi]]. In 2000 he remained at Arrows alongside Dutchman [[Jos Verstappen]]. He scored two points, finishing sixth in the German Grand Prix and the European Grand Prix. Verstappen commented mid-season that he and De la Rosa 'work well together and we have a good partnership'.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.grandprix.com/ns/ns02751.html|title=Verstappen – "I want to stay at Arrows"|date=25 August 2000|access-date=10 March 2011|work=GrandPrix.com|publisher=Inside F1, Inc.}}</ref> During the 2000 season, the Arrows team took part in a 13-part TV series named 'Racing Arrows' which followed the team and drivers throughout the year.

[[File:Pedro de la Rosa 2001 Canada.jpg|thumb|right|De la Rosa driving for [[Jaguar Racing|Jaguar]] at the [[2001 Canadian Grand Prix]]]]

===Jaguar (2001–2002)===
He raced for two years with [[Jaguar Racing]] alongside [[Eddie Irvine]], scoring 3 points in 2001 and none in 2002. At the end of the 2002 season Jaguar paid off his contract which was set to expire at the conclusion of 2003, replacing him with [[Antônio Pizzonia]].<ref name="De la Rosa - Pizzonia Switch Decided Last Week">{{cite web|url=https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/de-la-rosa-pizzonia-switch-decided-last-week-5061438/5061438/|title=De la Rosa - Pizzonia Switch Decided Last Week|last=Goran|first=Biranit|publisher=Autosport|date=1 November 2002|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210526214010/https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/de-la-rosa-pizzonia-switch-decided-last-week-5061438/5061438/|archive-date=26 May 2021}}</ref>

===McLaren (2003–2009)===
[[File:Pedro de la Rosa 2005 Canadian GP.jpg|thumb|left|De la Rosa at the [[2005 Canadian Grand Prix]], as a third driver]]
[[File:Pedro de la Rosa Hungaroring.jpg|thumb|left|De la Rosa at the [[2006 Hungarian Grand Prix]]]]
He became a [[test drive]]r for [[McLaren]] but raced at the [[2005 Bahrain Grand Prix]] when [[Juan Pablo Montoya]] injured his shoulder. He finished fifth and set a lap record which he still holds {{as of|2025|lc=y}}.

On 11 July 2006 it was announced that De la Rosa would take over the second McLaren race seat with immediate effect following [[Juan Pablo Montoya]]'s departure to [[NASCAR]]. It was initially unclear whether he would remain in the seat until the end of the season, but some successful results led to him being retained.

At the [[2006 Hungarian Grand Prix]] De la Rosa scored his first and only Formula One podium, finishing in second place behind [[Jenson Button]].

After a long period of speculation as to who would be [[Fernando Alonso]]'s teammate in {{F1|2007}}, [[Lewis Hamilton]] secured the seat. De la Rosa would carry on as the team's test driver.

For the {{F1|2005}} season he combined his testing duties with providing race commentary for Spanish broadcaster [[Telecinco]]. After his absence in 2006 he returned to the microphone in 2007.

Reports in 2007 consistently linked De la Rosa to a return to F1 racing with the new [[Prodrive F1|Prodrive]] team, which was set to make its debut in the {{F1|2008}} season. Speculation suggested that Prodrive would run with support from the McLaren team, and that De la Rosa, along with fellow tester [[Gary Paffett]], would race for them in their maiden season. However, the team failed to make the grid for the new season, and De la Rosa instead remained as a test driver for McLaren.
[[File:Pedro de la Rosa 2008 test 3.jpg|thumb|right|De la Rosa testing for [[McLaren]] at the [[Circuit de Catalunya]] in 2008]]
De la Rosa was also involved in the [[2007 Formula One espionage controversy|espionage controversy]] surrounding his team and rivals Ferrari. With evidence provided by him and teammate [[Fernando Alonso]], the [[FIA]] excluded the team from the 2007 Constructors' Championship, and issued a record fine of $100&nbsp;million. He was understood to have sent e-mails to Mike Coughlan and Fernando Alonso regarding the Ferrari cars' setup.<ref>{{cite news| title =Letter confirms drivers had new evidence | publisher =autosport.com| url =http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/62097| date =7 September 2007| access-date =7 September 2007}}</ref>

Before the [[2008 Australian Grand Prix|Australian Grand Prix of 2008]], De la Rosa was elected as the new chairman of the [[Grand Prix Drivers' Association]] after a unanimous vote. De la Rosa was the preferred candidate for GPDA directors [[Mark Webber (racing driver)|Mark Webber]] and [[Fernando Alonso]]. He replaced the retired [[Ralf Schumacher]] in the role.<ref>{{cite news| title =De la Rosa elected GPDA chairman | publisher =autosport.com| url =http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/65711| date =14 March 2008| access-date =14 March 2008}}</ref> He remained at McLaren in 2009, and as of January 2010 was the fifth most experienced test driver in history, in terms of test days.<ref>{{cite news|last=Elizalde|first=Pablo|title=Ten facts about Pedro de la Rosa|publisher=[[Haymarket Group|Haymarket Publications]]|work=autosport.com|url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/80961|date=19 January 2010|access-date=19 January 2010}}</ref> He stated that he wished to step down from the role of GPDA chairman, following the completion of his deal to drive for [[Sauber]] in 2010, and was duly replaced in the role by [[Nick Heidfeld]] at the [[2010 Australian Grand Prix|Australian Grand Prix]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Noble|first=Jonathan|title=Heidfeld appointed GPDA chairman|publisher=[[Haymarket Group|Haymarket Publications]]|work=autosport.com|url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/82402|date=26 March 2010|access-date=26 March 2010}}</ref>

===Sauber (2010–2011)===
[[File:Pedro de la Rosa 2010 Malaysia 2nd Free Practice.jpg|thumb|right|De la Rosa driving for [[Sauber]] at the [[2010 Malaysian Grand Prix]]]]

De la Rosa finished seven of the thirteen races he started in the {{F1|2010}} season, and picked up six points from a single points-scoring finish, a seventh-place finish at the {{F1 GP|2010|Hungarian}}.<ref>{{cite news|title=Hungarian GP – Sunday – Team Quotes|work=GrandPrix.com|publisher=Inside F1, Inc.|url=http://www.grandprix.com/race/r832sunquotes.html|date=1 August 2010|access-date=16 November 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140204045418/http://www.grandprix.com/race/r832sunquotes.html|archive-date=4 February 2014|url-status=dead}}</ref> These points would be the last of his Formula One career. De la Rosa qualified in the top ten on two occasions, at [[2010 British Grand Prix|Silverstone]] and in Hungary as both he and teammate Kobayashi struggled with reliability problems for the majority of the season.

He was dropped from his race seat by Sauber in favour of Nick Heidfeld after the Italian Grand Prix.<ref>{{cite news|title=Heidfeld replaces De la Rosa at Sauber|work=GPUpdate.net|publisher=GPUpdate.net|url=http://www.gpupdate.net/en/f1-news/242603/official-heidfeld-replaces-de-la-rosa-at-sauber/|date=14 September 2010|access-date=14 September 2010}}</ref> De la Rosa replaced Heidfeld as test driver for [[Pirelli]], in anticipation for their return to [[Formula One]] for the {{F1|2011}} season.<ref>{{cite news|title=De la Rosa takes Pirelli role|work=[[Sky Sports]]|publisher=[[British Sky Broadcasting]]|url=https://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12433_6405966,00.html|date=28 September 2010|access-date=6 November 2010}}</ref>

After [[Sergio Pérez]]'s accident in Monaco, De la Rosa replaced him for [[Sauber]] at the {{F1 GP|2011|Canadian}}, after Pérez decided after the first free practice session on Friday, to sit out the rest of the weekend.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/formula_one/13734813.stm|work=[[BBC Sport]]|publisher=[[British Broadcasting Corporation]]|date=10 June 2011|access-date=10 June 2011|title=Sergio Perez to miss rest of Canadian Grand Prix|first=Andrew|last=Benson}}</ref> De la Rosa managed to stay out of trouble throughout the first part of the race, affected by heavy rain, running as high as ninth before a red flag suspended the race. He eventually finished 12th after having some contact soon after the restart which required a new wing.

===McLaren (2011)===
On 9 March 2011, [[McLaren]] announced that De la Rosa had returned to the team as their test and reserve driver.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/89823|work=[[Autosport]]|publisher=[[Haymarket Group|Haymarket Publications]]|date=9 March 2011|access-date=9 March 2011|title=De la Rosa returns to McLaren|first=Pablo|last=Elizalde}}</ref>
