Alexandre Marsoin (born March 25, 1989) is a retired French professional racing driver.
Formula Renault
Marsoin initiated his motorsport journey in karting before making his debut in 2005 within the Formula Renault Campus France championship, where he secured an eighth-place finish. The following year, 2006, he progressed to compete in the French Formula Renault series with Epsilon Sport, achieving one podium finish and recording the fastest lap, ultimately ranking twelfth in the championship. Additionally, he participated in two events of the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0.
In 2007, Marsoin engaged full-time in both the French Formula Renault series and the Eurocup with SG Formula. In the national championship, he earned six podiums and two victories, concluding the season third overall behind teammate Jules Bianchi. Meanwhile, in the Eurocup, he placed fourteenth in the final standings.
Formula Renault 3.5 Series
Toward the end of 2007, Marsoin underwent testing sessions with Belgian outfit KTR at Paul Ricard and Valencia circuits. By February 2008, he secured a seat with Spanish team Epsilon Euskadi alongside rookie Mario Romancini. Throughout the 2008 campaign, Marsoin scored points on five occasions and finished nineteenth in the championship, with his best results being sixth-place finishes at Spa-Francorchamps and Hungaroring.
During the off-season, he tested with Tech 1 Racing, Prema Powerteam, and Comtec Racing before signing with Comtec Racing in January 2009. However, he missed both pre-season testing and the opening round at Montmeló. He returned for round two at Spa but parted ways with Comtec during that weekend; Max Chilton took over his seat for subsequent races.
Formula Three Euroseries
Marsoin stepped in to replace Jon Lancaster for the initial round of the 2009 Formula Three Euroseries season at Hockenheim, but departed from the team following the event at Lausitz.
