Gabriel Aubry (born 3 April 1998) is a French racing driver who last competed in theWorld Endurance Championship forVector Sport. He is a stalwart of theLMP2 category, having taken a runner-up spot forJackie Chan DC Racing in the2018–19 WEC season before competing in theIMSA SportsCar Championship and theEuropean Le Mans Series.

Born in Saint Germain-en-Laye, Aubry began karting in 2008 at the age of eleven, partaking in events across Europe. One of his karting achievements was the third place in the KFJ class of the Andrea Margutti Trophy, when he finished ahead of such drivers asJehan Daruvala andLando Norris.^[1]

In 2015, Aubry graduated to single-seaters. He competed in theFrench F4 Championship, where he wonHungaroring race and had another nine podium finishes. As a result, he finished in the top-three in the overall standings and as runner-up in the International F4 Championship standings.

In 2016, Aubry switched toFormula Renault 2.0 withTech 1 Racing, joining his French F4 rivalSacha Fenestraz.^[2] He had six point-scoring finishes and finished eleventh in the drivers' standings.^[3] He also had a partial2016 Formula Renault 2.0 Northern European Cup campaign with the same team.^[4]

Aubry continued with Tech 1 in2017.^[5] He won three races—two of them on Hungaroring and one at Spa—and had finished another five races on the podium position.^[6][7] He ended the season fifth.^[8] He again competed in theFormula Renault 2.0 Northern European Cup, ending the season fifth as well.^[9]

Aubry joinedArden International to compete in theGP3 Series in 2018.^[10] It proved to be a difficult rookie season, as the French driver scored just two points finishes on his way to 18th in the standings.

After making his sportscar debut with two races in the LMP3 class of the2017–18 Asian Le Mans Series, which included a win atSepang, Aubry progressed toLMP2 machinery for theWEC's "Super Season", driving alongsideHo-Pin Tung andStephane Richelmi atJackie Chan DC Racing.^[11][12] Following a second place at the season-openingSpa round, Aubry made his24 Hours of Le Mans debut, finishing sixth in class.^[13] Thereafter, he and his teammates took three podiums, which included wins atSilverstone andShanghai, with Aubry being entrusted with the final stint at the latter event.^[14][15] Though the team celebrated two further podium appearances towards the end of the campaign, culminating in a runner-up finihsh atLe Mans, Aubry and his stablemates ended up second in the standings, only behind the Le Mans-winningSignatech Alpine crew.^[16] During 2019, the Frenchman partook in the endurance rounds of theIMSA SportsCar Championship withPR1/Mathiasen Motorsports, winning the6 Hours of The Glen and helpingMatt McMurry to the title.^[17][18]

For the2019–20 WEC season, Aubry returned to Jackie Chan DC, with him and Tung being joined byWill Stevens. Until the commencement of theCOVID-19 pandemic, Aubry and the team were firmly in the title race, having finished on the podium on five occasions.^[19] Aubry missed the postponedSpa event due to a positiveCOVID-19-test, which he had contracted as a result of his dealings in theELMS driving forAlgarve Pro Racing, leaving him unable to be part of the championship picture.^[20] A piece of redemption arrived in the final race atBahrain, where Aubry charged pastAntónio Félix da Costa to take the team's final win in the category.^[21]

The 2021 campaign saw Aubry join gentleman driverJohn Farano atStarworks-run Tower Motorsport for the entireIMSA season.^[22] In a season where only three teams competed in all rounds, a pair of retirements became the duo's undoing, as they finished third in the standings despite winning the season-endingPetit Le Mans event.^[23]

Going into 2022, Aubry transitioned to GT racing, joiningSpirit of Race as their pro-ranked driver in theLMGTE Am class of theWEC.^[24] The team struggled to achieve results, retiring from two of the opening three races before taking a season-best finish of fifth atMonza, one that left SoR 13th and last of all outfits in the teams' standings. The year also yielded no success in LMP2, as Aubry and bronze-rated Rob Hodes finished seventh and last in the Pro-Am subclass of theELMS with Team Virage.^[25]

Vector Sport became Aubry's new home in 2023, as he moved back to LMP2 on a full-time basis in theWEC.^[26] Despite driving alongside two silvers in the form ofMatthias Kaiser andRyan Cullen, the French driver was able to showcase his pace, notably by qualifying second atPortimão, merely 0.001 seconds off polesitterMirko Bortolotti.^[27] He helped the team to finish seventh at Le Mans but got unlucky with a number of technical issues throughout the season, leaving him and Vector tenth overall.

Initially announced as one of Vector Sport's drivers for the2024 European Le Mans Series campaign, Aubry was released via a phone call one week before pre-season testing to make way forFelipe Drugovich, in a decision the Frenchman described as having shocked him.^[28] His only racing appearance of the year came inPortimão, where he joined Nielsen Racing.^[29]
