Reshad de Gerus

Reshad Jean de Gerus (born 1 July 2003) is a French racing driver from Réunion, currently competing in the European Le Mans Series for Inter Europol Competition.

De Gerus drove in the French F4 Championship from 2018 to 2019. In his debut season, he took part in the Junior category, finishing runner-up to Théo Pourchaire with four wins and sixteen podiums. In 2019, de Gerus competed in the full championship, where four wins, including one at the Pau Circuit, helped him to second in the standings.

De Gerus represented Team France and the FFSA at the 2019 FIA Motorsport Games Formula 4 Cup where an Olympic style competition takes place with different categories of racing. De Gerus was driving in the Formula 4 Cup. After qualifying, he was in ninth, just over two seconds off the pace. For the qualifying race, he slipped back one place meaning Team France would start in tenth behind Team Russia. The race itself saw de Gerus finish fifth.

In January 2020, it was announced that de Gerus would compete in the Formula Renault Eurocup for British team Arden Motorsport alongside Alex Quinn and Ugo de Wilde. While his teammates both finished inside the top-ten in the standings, de Gerus would have a more difficult campaign, with only three points finishes seeing him end up 17th in the championship.

De Gerus graduated to Formula 3 in 2021, racing alongside Logan Sargeant and Enzo Fittipaldi at Charouz Racing System. He left the team after twelve races, having taken a best result of 13th in Barcelona.

In February 2022, it was announced that de Gerus has joined Duqueine Team for the European Le Mans Series campaign, racing for the French outfit alongside Richard Bradley and Memo Rojas. Following three rounds, where the team scored a best finish of sixth at Imola, de Gerus quit the series.

That year, de Gerus also made his debut at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, thus becoming the first driver from the French Overseas Department of Réunion to compete in the event.

Having been upgraded from silver to gold-ranked status by the FIA, de Gerus returned to the ELMS in 2023, pairing up with José María López and Vladislav Lomko at Cool Racing. The season started well, with de Gerus taking his maiden pole position in sportscars at Barcelona. Despite another pole scored by López at the following round, the team would struggle to achieve results throughout the year, with the best finish being a lone podium in Spa-Francorchamps, which came about after a chaotic race in the LMP2 class. The trio ended up sixth in the standings.
