Arthur Mathieu

Arthur Mathieu is a rising talent in the world of French motorsport. Born into a family with a deep passion for Porsche, Mathieu's journey began amidst his father's impressive collection of nearly 30 classic models. This early exposure ignited his love for racing, quickly revealing a natural talent behind the wheel. Currently, at the young age of 21 (in 2024), Arthur has already made a name for himself in the Carrera Cup France, where he has competed for three seasons.

What sets Mathieu apart is his unique approach to racing: blending motorsport with art. He's become known for driving "art cars," race cars with eye-catching liveries created in collaboration with artists. Previous collaborators include French abstract artist Bernar Venet and American visual artist Daniel Arsham. This innovative approach extends to securing sponsorships, offering something unique and artistic rather than a simple sticker in exchange for funding.

Beyond his artistic flair, Mathieu is a dedicated racer focused on improving his performance. In a 2023 race at Magny-Cours, he qualified fifth, a career best. He is a Silver-graded FIA driver. His career statistics show that he has participated in 142 races and achieved 29 podium finishes. Arthur is driven by a desire to make racing accessible to younger generations and to showcase the intersection of creativity and performance within the sport.
