Louis Iglesias (born 17 March 2008) is a French racing driver competing in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup for ANS Motorsport.
Personal life Iglesias is the son of Yannick Iglesias, a former karting driver who manages the Brignoles Karting track and the Kart In Pro Competition team. His uncle is also a karting driver, who has been racing competitively in karts since 1994, most notably winning the 2020 Karting World Championship in the KZ class. He is a protégé of Formula One driver Charles Leclerc.
Career Iglesias began karting in 2013. Starting out in Mini karts, Iglesias won the Coupe de France and the French Championship in 2017, receiving an invitation to compete in the RMC Grand Finals later that year, which he won in Micro Max. The following year, Iglesias joined Formula E team Venturi Racing's newly-created junior programme, a year in which he finished third in the National Series Karting's Cadet standings. After a year for Praga Racing Team in WSK-organized championships in 60 Mini, which yielded a lone pole in the WSK Open Cup, Iglesias returned to National Series Karting for 2020, once again finishing third in the Cadet points.
Two years in junior karting then ensued, in which Iglesias won the National Series Karting, Coupe de France and French titles in 2022, as well as a shootout to compete in the inaugural Monaco E-Karting Championship's EK2 Junior class the same year. After racing in the RMC Grand Finals, it was announced that Iglesias would join CRG Racing Team for his step-up to senior karting the following year. In his two-year stint with the team, Iglesias finished eighth in the Karting World Championship in his rookie year, before securing fourth in the Karting European Championship standings in 2024.
In 2025, Iglesias stepped up to single-seaters, racing in the FFSA Academy centrally-run French F4 Championship with backing from the Winfield Racing School. Starting off the season with third-place finishes at the Nogaro and Dijon rounds, Iglesias took his maiden pole position for race one at Magny-Cours, before finishing third in race three. Iglesias then ended the season with his only win of the season in race one at Le Mans from pole, en route to a sixth-place points finish.
The following year, Iglesias switched to sportscar racing, joining ANS Motorsport to compete in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup, as a new inductee to the CLX Academy. At the second round of the season at Le Castellet, Iglesias took a commanding pole and recovered from 18th to third in the race after damage. Although a penalty for overtaking off-track cost him the podium, Iglesias made headlines, having lapped 1.3 seconds faster than any other driver during his stint. Iglesias stated he was "enjoying" his transition to LMP3, commenting "the downforce, the braking, the weight of the car [...] is on another level" compared to Formula 4.
