Bertrand Baguette is an elite professional sportscar and endurance racing driver holding FIA Platinum status. He races full-time for Team Impul in Super GT, the Japanese national endurance championship where he has spent the majority of his career since 2014. He drives a Nissan in the GT500 class and currently sits in the 2026 season having taken podium finishes in early rounds.[1]
Baguette won the 2022 Super GT championship with Team Impul and holds two titles overall: the 2009 Formula V8 3.5 championship with International Draco Racing and the 2013 WEC LMP2 class title with OAK Racing. His early career spanned single-seaters through Formula Renault and into V8 3.5, where he took six wins across the three-season period, followed by one season in IndyCar and two seasons in the World Endurance Championship where he won the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Since joining Team Impul in 2014 he has accumulated five wins and sixteen podiums across 85 Super GT starts, establishing himself as the team's lead driver.[2]
Among his regular Super GT opponents he runs closely with Kazuya Oshima, a former 2016 Super GT champion, while he typically finishes ahead of Nobuteru Taniguchi, a Silver-graded driver with significant domestic experience. In a wider field that includes elite professionals such as Tadasuke Makino, who won the 2020 and 2025 Super GT titles, Baguette has beaten them across multiple meetings and remains an established front-running presence in the championship.
