Pierre Gasly at the Lacoste Polo Factory
An internationally acclaimed French talent, Pierre Gasly joins Lacoste as an ambassador, becoming one of the new faces of its iconic polo shirt. It was the perfect opportunity for him to discover the Lacoste Polo Factory…
A Natural Fit for the Polo
An internationally acclaimed French talent, Gasly made history in 2019 as the youngest French driver to reach a Formula 1 podium at the Brazilian Grand Prix. The following year, he secured a landmark victory at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza—marking the first French win in the sport since 1996.
Beyond his achievements on the track, Gasly represents a new generation of athletes for whom sport naturally intersects with culture and style—a mindset that resonates deeply with Lacoste’s DNA. As an ambassador, he will notably embody one of the Maison’s most iconic pieces: the polo shirt.
