Mathieu Arzeno (born on 18 August 1987 in Salon-de-Provence) is a French competitor in rally driving and a former circuit racer. He secured his inaugural point in the World Rally Championship by finishing tenth overall at the 2012 Rallye Deutschland while driving a Peugeot 207 S2000.

Circuit Racing

Arzeno's motorsport journey started with karting, progressing to single-seaters in 2005 where he achieved second place in the Formula Renault Campus, trailing Jean-Karl Vernay. The following year, he participated in the French Formula Renault, ending the season seventh, and improved to finish as runner-up in 2007, behind Jules Bianchi. In 2008, Arzeno competed in the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 championship, placing tenth overall despite missing two rounds out of seven due to financial limitations.

Rallying

Transitioning to rally competition in 2009, Arzeno placed twelfth overall and third within his class at the Monte Carlo Rally. He took part in the Junior World Rally Championship during 2010 and then concentrated on the French tarmac rally championship throughout 2011.
