Paul Alexandre Belmondo (born 23 April 1963) is a French racing driver and actor who raced in Formula One for the March and Pacific Racing teams. In 1982 he trained at Winfield Racing School, and graduated as the top student with the prestigious Volant Elf Competition Scholarship. Through 1987, Belmondo participated in Formula 3 and Formula 3000, although he was never a top-ten championship finisher in either. In 1992, he joined the March F1 team as a pay driver, getting a ninth place at the Hungarian Grand Prix, but only qualifying four more times before he ran out of money and was replaced by Emanuele Naspetti. Two years later, he became a member of the uncompetitive Pacific Grand Prix team, where he only qualified for two races and was usually behind teammate Bertrand Gachot. Thereafter, he concentrated on GT racing, at the wheel of a Chrysler Viper GTS-R. He started his own team, Paul Belmondo Racing, which raced in the FIA GT Championship and Le Mans Endurance Series championship before folding in 2007.
