French · Rouen, France · Born 7 February 1996French Formula 1 racing driver known for his 2020 Italian Grand Prix victory with AlphaTauri and multiple podium finishes in a career spanning over 100 races.
Pierre Jean-Jacques Gasly was born on 7 February 1996 in Rouen, Normandy, France, to Jean-Jacques and Pascale Gasly, and began competitive kart racing at ten before progressing through French junior formulae, winning the Formula Renault Eurocup title in 2013 and the GP2 Series championship in 2016 as a member of the Red Bull junior programme. Gasly made his Formula One debut with Toro Rosso in 2017, and delivered the signature moment of his career at the 2020 Italian Grand Prix, winning for AlphaTauri in a chaotic, safety-car-affected race — a result that stood in stark contrast to the tragedy of the previous year, when Gasly's close friend and fellow driver Anthoine Hubert was killed in a Formula 2 crash at the same Spa-Francorchamps circuit. Gasly spent several seasons with the Red Bull junior team before moving to Alpine in 2023, continuing to be one of the most consistent and well-liked drivers on the grid, renowned for his composure and technical feedback. Gasly has remained with Alpine into the 2026 season, continuing to compete as one of the senior French representatives on the Formula One grid.
