Alexander James Peroni (born 27 November 1999) is an Australian professional racing driver currently competing in the 2025 GT World Challenge Australia representing Team BRM. He previously took part in the 2022 European Le Mans Series with Algarve Pro Racing. Peroni claimed the title in the 2016 Challenge Monoplace championship.

Formula 4

Peroni transitioned from karting to single-seater racing in 2015, participating in the 2015 Italian F4 Championship for Torino Squadra Corse. He concluded the season in fourteenth place overall, securing two second-place finishes at Imola and Misano.

Formula Renault

In 2016, Peroni remained with TS Corse, competing in Formula Renault 2.0 within the 2016 V de V Challenge Monoplace, where he dominated by winning 14 out of 21 races, clinching the championship.

The following year, he advanced to the Formula Renault Eurocup driving for Fortec Motorsport. He achieved victory in race two at the Pau circuit and ended the season ranked tenth, ahead of teammates Aleksey Korneev, Najiy Razak, and Frank Bird.

For the 2018 season, Peroni joined MP Motorsport in the Formula Renault Eurocup, finishing ninth overall. Standout performances included a first and second place during the Monaco rounds. Additionally, he won both races at the opening round of the NEC series on Pau’s street circuit, marking his sole NEC participation that year.

2019

Peroni stepped up to the 2019 FIA Formula 3 Championship with Campos Racing. During the Italian feature race at Monza, shortly after Anthoine Hubert’s fatal accident, Peroni experienced a serious crash after contacting a "sausage kerb" at Parabolica. His car flipped into tyre barriers and came to rest against the catch fence. Although initially unharmed, he was later diagnosed with a vertebral fracture.

Following medical advice, Peroni withdrew from the remainder of the season as well as the Macau Grand Prix. He completed 2019 ranked twentieth with five points—the only points scored by Campos Racing that year.

2020

After recuperating from his Monza injuries, Peroni returned to FIA Formula 3 with Campos Racing for the postponed 2020 campaign. During pre-season testing in Bahrain, he set the fastest lap time overall. At the opening round at Red Bull Ring, he secured his first FIA F3 podium by finishing third. Additional podiums included third place in Race 2 at Silverstone and second place in Race 2 at Barcelona.

He concluded the 2020 FIA Formula 3 season tenth in the standings with a total of 64 points, once again scoring all points for Campos Racing. In recognition of his achievements, Peroni was awarded the 2020 Peter Brock Medal, joining former recipients such as Mark Webber and Craig Lowndes. He exited Formula 3 following this season.

Indy Lights

At the end of 2020, Peroni made a switch from FIA Formula 3 to compete in North America’s Indy Lights series. UK-based Carlin Motorsport secured him on a one-year contract for the 2021 season, marking Carlin’s return to Indy Lights after a two-year absence.

Peroni achieved his only podium finish in Indy Lights by placing third in the second race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in May 2021. In September of that year, he announced an early departure from Indy Lights, withdrawing from the final three rounds to concentrate on racing opportunities back in Europe.

Euroformula Open

Peroni entered the 2022 Euroformula Open Championship with Drivex School. Nevertheless, he concluded his participation abruptly following the initial round.

European Le Mans

In 2022, Peroni competed in the 2022 European Le Mans Series with Algarve Pro Racing, racing in the LMP2 Pro-Am category alongside teammates Australian James Allen and American John Falb.

GT World Challenge Europe

For the 2023 season, Peroni moved into GT3 competition, joining GetSpeed Performance in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup. He shared driving duties with Patrick Assenheimer and Florian Scholze, contesting the Bronze Cup division.
