Alexey Nesov

Alexey Nesov (; born 22 September 2003) is a Russian racing driver set to compete in GT World Challenge Europe for Pure Rxcing.

Career Nesov began racing single-seaters in 2019, competing in the SMP Racing centrally-run SMP F4 Championship, taking a lone win at NRING and eight other podiums to finish third in points. Switching to sportscars for the following year, Nesov joined Mercedes-fielding AKM Motorsport to compete in the Am class of International GT Open. Competing in the first four rounds of the season, he took class wins at the Red Bull Ring and Monza, as well as five other podiums to end the year runner-up in the standings.

After not racing for the following two seasons, Nesov joined Madpanda Motorsport to race in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup. Sharing a Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo with Magnus Gustavsen and team owner Ezequiel Pérez Companc in the Silver Cup, Nesov scored a lone class podium at Monza, which helped him end the year fifth in points. At the end of the year, Nesov raced in the 2023–24 Asian Le Mans Series for Audi-affiliated Attempto Racing in the GT class, scoring a best result of 14th in race one at Sepang. Later in 2024, Nesov returned to the team to race in the 24 Hours of Spa, which he won in Bronze Cup alongside Max Hofer, Dylan Pereira and Andrey Mukovoz. However, Nesov's main campaign for 2024 was in SMP GT4 Russia, in which he raced for SMP Racing Motor Sharks, winning all but two of the 15 races he contested en route to the title with a race to spare.

At the start of 2025, Nesov joined Porsche customer team Pure Rxcing to race in the Dubai 24 Hour, in which he finished second overall alongside Harry King, Alex Malykhin and Thomas Preining. For the rest of the year, Nesov returned to Tresor Attempto Racing to race in the Bronze Cup of the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup, as well as a one-off appearance in the GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup. In Nesov's second full-time season in the series, he took a lone class podium at Barcelona en route to a 20th-place points finish. During 2025, Nesov also competed in selected rounds of International GT Open for Porsche-affiliated Dinamic GT and Car Collection Motorsport, scoring a Pro-Am class podium with the latter in race two at the Red Bull Ring.

In January of the following year, Nesov joined McLaren-affiliated United Autosports to race in the UAE rounds of the 2025–26 Asian Le Mans Series in the GT class, scoring both fastest laps at Abu Dhabi and a best result of sixth in race two. Also during the winter, Nesov returned to Pure Rxcing to compete in the Dubai 24 Hour, finishing sixth overall alongside Malykhin, Michelle Gatting and Max Hofer.
