Lucas Lasserre (born 9 March 1978) is a professional racing driver from France currently active in the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series. He pilots the No. 64 Ford Mustang as both driver and owner of the SpeedHouse team.

Racing career

Lasserre's motorsport journey started in karting before he achieved notable success in Formula Renault and Spanish Formula Three. He later moved into sports and GT car racing, competing with Panoz in the European Le Mans Series and racing Lamborghinis in Japan's Super GT. From 2003 to 2008, he collaborated with several manufacturers such as Renault Sport, Michelin, Oreca, and Norma Auto Concept, participating notably in the LMP1 category of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

In mid-2008, Lasserre established Carre Sport, an event promotion firm that managed EffiTIC-Carre Sport vehicles; the company ceased operations in February 2012.

Lasserre entered the newly formed Racecar Euro Series in 2009, capturing the Elite class championship as its first-ever winner. He successfully defended this title in the following year, 2010. His achievements earned him an invitation to the 2011 Toyota All-Star Showdown at Irwindale Speedway, where he started 38th and finished 15th.

After a hiatus from the Euro Series post-2011, Lasserre returned in 2017 under NASCAR governance, initially racing with Dog Racing before transferring to Mishumotors midway through the season. The subsequent year, he competed full-time with Mishumotors’ No. 33 entry, claiming his first victory in the NASCAR era at Franciacorta after the original winner, Alon Day, was disqualified. He concluded that season third overall with several podium finishes.

Remaining with Mishumotors through 2019 and 2020, Lasserre ended those seasons ranked 17th and fourth respectively. During this period, he launched SpeedHouse, his own racing outfit, which participated part-time in both years before committing to full-time competition in 2021 with Lasserre as lead driver. That year, he secured third place in the championship standings, achieving three podiums and ten finishes within the top ten.
