Fernando Vélez Pacheco is a contestant from Survivor México (2021).

Fernando joined the Halcones tribe until Cycle 5, where although he was not well received at first, he later decided to remain neutral to the groups in the tribe and was able to continue advancing in the game, besides helping the tribe with his knowledge of nature thanks to his profession. After a tribe switch, Fernando joined the Jaguares tribe, where along with other members of the Halcones tribe, he affiliated to the alliance of Las Hienas, and despite not feeling entirely comfortable with the alliance, it allowed him to survive and reach the merge. In the merge, Fernando took the opportunity to leave the alliance and continue playing on the sidelines as he did in the beginning, however, this was taken as a betrayal by Las Hienas, which even led him to have strong clashes with Jorge Ortín. Fernando, not being in any alliance that protected him, was nominated by discard directly by Adianez Hernández in Cycle 17. During the Extinction Duel, Fernando failed to defeat Pablo Martí and Sargento Rap, being eliminated.
