Pierre-Alexandre Provost (born 11 April 2006) is a racing driver holding Luxembourgish and French nationality, currently competing in the Le Mans Cup series.
Early formula racing
Provost launched his car racing journey in 2021 by participating in the French F4 Championship. Although his initial races were challenging, he leveraged the reversed top-ten grid format at Lédenon to achieve a pole-to-flag victory. He secured an additional podium finish at Magny-Cours, ultimately ranking 11th in the overall standings. Beginning his career at just 14 years old with minimal karting background, Provost simultaneously pursued a sports-focused academic program based in Le Mans.
Continuing in French F4 throughout 2022, Provost recorded his first main race podium by finishing second at Nogaro. He also claimed another runner-up position in a reversed-grid event at Magny-Cours but faced several retirements caused by incidents at Magny-Cours, Spa-Francorchamps, and Lédenon. Demonstrating resilience, he bounced back with a victory in the second race at Lédenon and wrapped up the season with strong third and fourth-place results at Le Castellet, securing eighth place in the championship rankings.
Towards the end of 2022, Provost conducted testing sessions with G4 Racing in the Formula Regional European Championship (FRECA). After dedicating early 2023 to academic commitments, he joined G4 Racing for the sixth round of the 2023 FRECA season. His debut yielded a 26th-place finish at Le Castellet, with his best performance being 14th at Monza. He completed the season ranked 30th without scoring championship points.
Transition to sports car racing
Provost made his sports car racing debut in 2024, competing with MV2S in the NP02 category of the Ultimate Cup Series, alongside teammate Christophe Cresp. The pair achieved two class podiums—third place finishes at both Portimão and Paul Ricard—and concluded the season eighth in the NP02 drivers' championship. A notable moment was Provost’s impressive charge from 20th to leading position during his opening stint at Portimão.
In 2025, Provost stepped up to the LMP3 division, piloting a Ligier JS P325 for CLX Motorsport together with Alvise Rodella in the Le Mans Cup. At the season’s first round held at Barcelona-Catalunya, they secured a one-two finish for CLX Motorsport. Provost captured his inaugural pole position at Le Castellet and converted it into a commanding victory by establishing an early lead and maintaining control throughout the race.
