===World Touring Car Championship=== ====SUNRED Engineering (2012)==== Valente made his debut in the WTCC at the [[2012 FIA WTCC Race of China]], driving the [[SEAT León#Second generation (1P; 2005)|SUNRED SR León 1.6T]] previously driven in the [[2012 World Touring Car Championship season|2012 season]] by [[Tiago Monteiro]] and [[Hiroki Yoshimoto]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Hudson|first=Neil|title=Hugo Valente to race for SUNRED in Shanghai|url=http://www.touringcartimes.com/article.php?id=8338|work=TouringCarTimes|publisher=Mediaempire Stockholm AB|date=25 October 2012|access-date=3 November 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121027031033/http://www.touringcartimes.com/article.php?id=8338|archive-date=27 October 2012}}</ref> He qualified 23rd for the race with the only SR León on the grid.

====Campos Racing (2013–2015)==== Valente would stay the WTCC full-time in [[2013 World Touring Car Championship season|2013 season]], joining [[Campos Racing]] alongside [[Fernando Monje]] in a [[SEAT León#Second generation (1P; 2005)|SEAT León WTCC]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.touringcartimes.com/2013/03/13/campos-racing-confirm-monje-and-valente-for-2013/|title=Campos Racing confirm Monje and Valente for 2013|date=13 March 2013|work=TouringCarTimes|publisher=Mediaempire Stockholm AB|access-date=13 March 2013}}</ref> The start of his season was delayed until the [[2013 FIA WTCC Race of Hungary|Race of Hungary]] when Campos introduced their second car.<ref>{{cite news|last=Tremayne|first=Sam|title=Hugo Valente to return to WTCC with Campos SEAT in Hungary|url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/107013|work=[[Autosport]]|publisher=[[Haymarket Media Group|Haymarket Publications]]|access-date=14 June 2013|date=23 April 2013}}</ref> He skipped the Russian and Portuguese rounds of the championship and his car was taken over by [[European Touring Car Cup]] driver [[Nikolay Karamyshev]].<ref>{{cite news|title=KARAMYSHEV FACES WTCC DEBUT|url=http://www.fiawtcc.com/news/detail/id/1022/t/KARAMYSHEV-FACES-WTCC-DEBUT|work=[[World Touring Car Championship]]|publisher=Kigema Sport Organisation|access-date=14 June 2013|date=24 May 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029210823/http://www.fiawtcc.com/news/detail/id/1022/t/KARAMYSHEV-FACES-WTCC-DEBUT|archive-date=29 October 2013}}</ref>

====Lada Sport (2016)==== Valtente secured a factory drive with the [[Lada Sport|Lada Sport Rosneft]] team for [[2016 World Touring Car Championship|2016]]. It was a tough season as Valente was unable to make the podium, unlike his teammates [[Gabriele Tarquini]] and [[Nick Catsburg]] who both took victories. Valente's best results were two fourth place finishes in Morocco and Russia. After scoring points consistently for the first half of the season, Valente would only finish once more in the points across the final four rounds including five retirements. This left him in 12th place overall, three places behind Tarquini and five behind Catsburg. At the end of the season it was announced that Lada would be pulling out of the [[World Touring Car Championship]], leaving Valente without a drive for [[2017 World Touring Car Championship|2017]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Lada set to leave WTCC at the end of 2016|url=https://www.motorsport.com/wtcc/news/lada-set-to-leave-wtcc-at-the-end-of-2016-846316/|work=[[World Touring Car Championship]]|publisher=Motorsport.com|access-date=10 June 2017|date=3 November 2016}}</ref>

===TCR International Series=== ====Campos Racing (2015)==== Valente made his debut in the new for 2015, [[TCR International Series]], at the penultimate round in Thailand. Driving with [[Campos Racing]] in their [[Opel Astra]], Valente did not finish the first race of the weekend, although he was still classified. Valente started the second race from pole position as a result of it being a reversed grid race. However Valente would retire from this race as well.

====Craft-Bamboo Racing (2017)==== Having been unable to secure a seat in the [[World Touring Car Championship]], Valente rejoined the [[TCR International Series]] with the [[Craft-Bamboo Racing]] team alongside TCR frontrunners and former World Touring Car rivals, [[Pepe Oriola]] and [[James Nash (racing driver)|James Nash]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Hugo Valente joins James Nash and Pepe Oriola at Craft-Bamboo|url=https://www.touringcartimes.com/2017/03/15/hugo-valente-joins-james-nash-and-pepe-oriola-at-craft-bamboo/|work=[[TCR International Series]]|publisher=TouringCarTimes|access-date=10 June 2017|date=March 2017}}</ref> At the first round in Georgia, Valente retired from the first race of the season, but finished in ninth place in the second and scoring his first TCR points. Valente took his first podium of the season in the second round at Bahrain, with a second place finish. He followed this up with a third place in the second race of the weekend. However a non-points scoring weekend at [[Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps|Spa-Francorchamps]] dealt a blow to his championship hopes. Although Valente finished sixth in the first race at [[Autodromo Nazionale Monza|Monza]], a further retirement in the second, having started the race from pole left Valente in tenth place in the championship, 67 points adrift from the championship leader at that point in time.

Shortly before the round at the [[Salzburgring]], it was announced that Valente would retire from motorsport with immediate effect, citing the need to be closer to his family, in particular his young daughter. His seat at the team was taken over by former [[British Touring Car Championship|British Touring Car]] driver, [[Daniel Lloyd (racing driver)|Dan Lloyd]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Daniel Lloyd replaces retiring Hugo Valente in TCR switch|url=https://www.touringcartimes.com/2017/06/08/daniel-lloyd-replaces-retiring-hugo-valente-in-tcr-switch/|work=[[TCR International Series]]|publisher=TouringCarTimes|access-date=10 June 2017|date=8 June 2017}}</ref>
