George Heath ( 1862 – c. 1943) was an American racing driver. A native Long Islander, he spent much of his adult life in France. Heath won the first Vanderbilt Cup race in 1904 driving a Panhard, and was retroactively awarded a 1904 National Championship in 1951 by revisionist sportswriter Russ Catlin. Heath returned to the Vanderbilt Cup in 1905 and placed second. He continued to race until 1909.
