Jules Roussel

Jules Roussel (born 24 October 2006) is a French racing driver currently competing in the Formula Regional European Championship for CL Motorsport.

Roussel previously competed in the 2025 French F4 Championship, finishing third. He is the winner of the 2025 FIA F4 World Cup.

Personal life Roussel is the son of former racing driver Patrice Roussel, who won the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans in the LMP2 class, the cousin of Léo Roussel, who won the 2017 European Le Mans Series, and the grandson of Pierre Roussel, a former rally driver.

Career Karting Born in Saint-Herblain, Roussel began karting at the age of seven, competing until 2023. Spending most of his career with Extreme Limite, Roussel was the National Series Karting champion in 2023 and was runner-up in the 2022 Coupe de France.

Formula 4 2024 In 2024, Roussel stepped up to single-seaters, racing in the FFSA Academy-centrally run French F4 Championship. In his rookie year in the series, Rousssel scored his maiden podium in race two at Spa by finishing second after starting on reverse-grid pole.

2025 Roussel remained in French F4 for 2025. In the season-opening round at Nogaro, he finished fifth in race one before ending off the weekend with back-to-back second-place finishes. In the following round at Dijon, Roussel finished second in races one and three behind Alexandre Munoz. In the season's only trip outside of France, Roussel won race one from pole at Spa, and then won race three at Munoz retired. After two retirements and a second-place finish at Magny-Cours, Roussel took what turned out to be his last podium of the season at Lédenon by finishing second in race one, to enter the final round 68 points behind Munoz. In the final round at Le Mans, Roussel finished seventh in race one but failed to score points in the other two races and dropped to third in the standings. At the end of the year, Roussel raced in the F4 World Cup, which he won after taking the lead from Rayan Caretti with three laps to go.

Formula Regional Stepping up to Formula Regional competition in early 2026, Roussel joined G4 Racing to race in the Formula Regional Middle East Trophy. In the four rounds, Roussel scored a best result of seventh in race three at Dubai en route to a 19th-place points finish. Following that, Roussel tested for CL Motorsport in the official pre-season tests of the Formula Regional European Championship, before joining the team to race in the series for the rest of the year.
