Renaud Derlot (born 4 March 1979) is a French racing driver and manager. He won the 2002 Pau Grand Prix.

Career

[edit]

Derlot made his single-seater debut in 1997 in Formula Renault Campus,[1] before spending two years in Formula Ford France, which were headlined by a title-winning campaign in 1999 with 16 wins to his name.[2] Another title-winning season in Formula Renault 2.0 France for Graff Racing then followed in 2000.[3]

In 2001, Derlot stepped up to the French Formula Three Championship with Signature, under the management of Benetton and Renault team principal Flavio Briatore.[4][5] In his rookie season, Derlot scored six podiums and a best result of second four times as he finished fourth in the overall standings.[6] Continuing in the series for 2002 with Autobacs and Scania sponsorship,[7] Derlot swept the season opener at Nogaro, before taking further wins at Lédenon and Magny-Cours to secure runner-up honours behind Tristan Gommendy.[8][9][10] Derlot also drove for ARTA/Signature in several one-off F3 races,[11] and won the Pau Grand Prix, which at the time awarded the FIA European Formula 3 Cup title.[12][13]

Derlot made his only 24 Hours of Le Mans start in 2004 for Epsilon Sport.

In 2003, Derlot moved to sportscar racing with outings in the French GT Championship for XL Racing and the 1000 km of Le Mans for Didier Bonnet Racing in LMP675,[14][15] before making his debut at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2004, driving for Epsilon Sport in LMP2.[16][17] Moving to Eurocup Mégane Trophy and TP Comptétition for 2005,[18] Derlot took a win at Le Mans and nine other podiums to finish runner-up to Jan Heylen.[19][20] Following a guest return to the series in 2006,[21] Derlot moved to Porsche Carrera Cup France on a full-time basis in 2007 with IMSA Performance Matmut.[22] He won at Nogaro and Val de Vienne and took six further podiums to secure fourth in points.[23]

Ninth for IMSA Performance in 2008 then followed,[24] before Derlot had his breakout year with Graff Racing in 2009,[25] scoring four wins en route to the PCCF title.[26] In 2010, Derlot graduated to the French GT Championship with Graff to share a Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06 with Arnaud Peyroles.[27] The pair won at Nogaro, Dijon and Val de Vienne to clinch runner-up honours on debut.[28] Derlot partnered Gérard Tonelli in 2011, as Graff switched to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3.[29] They won the opening two races at Lédenon,[30][31] before taking further victories at Dijon and Le Castellet to end the year fourth overall.[32] Across the following three seasons, Derlot made sporadic returns to FFSA GT with Graff and Saintéloc Racing, before stepping back from driving at the end of 2014.[33][34]

Manager

[edit]

In 2005, while still active in racing, Derlot got into driver management, starting with Nico Prost and Jean-Éric Vergne, whom he mentored through his Formula One stint with Toro Rosso.[35][36] In 2016, Derlot became the sporting director of newly-created Panis Barthez Compétition in the European Le Mans Series,[37][38] and later co-founded Vitesse Sports Management in 2020 with Julian Jakobi [fr].[5][39]
