Fabien Lavergne (born 25 October 1985) is a French racing driver. He is the 2019 European Le Mans Series LMGTE champion.[1][2]

Lavergne started his career in karting, where he won the regional Aquitaine championship seven times in 15 years. In 2013, Lavergne competed in the French Legends car championship, before competing in the French single-seater series with a Formula Renault car from the 2000s, winning six races in two years and finishing second in the standings both times.[3]

After winning the Mitjet 2L series in 2017, Lavergne migrated into sportscar racing the following year, competing in various LMP3 series.[4] He soon attained success, winning the 2019 European Le Mans Series in the LMGTE class in a Ferrari 488 GTE Evo alongside Alessandro Pier Guidi and Nicklas Nielsen.[5][6] That year he also dominated both races of the 2019 Road to Le Mans event, which helped him towards second place in the GT3 class of the Michelin Le Mans Cup.[7]

After being upgraded from FIA Bronze to Silver at the start of 2020, Lavergne finished second in the French GT4 Cup.[8] He later returned to LMP3 prototype racing on a full-time basis, and racked up multiple wins on his way to runner-up in the Asian Le Mans Series in both 2023 and 2024.[9][10]

Lavergne is a director at MV2S Racing and coach at Nicolas Todt's All Road Management; he previously worked as a commercial advisor for AMC Renault, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz France.[11][12]
