What ever happened to Joao Barbosa?

[Civic]

I think Barbosa went as far as Lights or Atlantics. Is he still racing? I just saw a name in the news about a missing ship and a Portuguese commander by that name was interviewed. Maybe Joao Barbosa is a common Portuguese name?

João is racing in Grand Am and at Le Mans. A very good driver indeed.
