Guy Mairesse (born 10 August 1910 in La Capelle, died 24 April 1954 in Montlhéry) was a French racing driver who competed in Formula in 1951 for Motorsport Bleu, without much success. In 1952, he sold his open-wheel car and concentrated on sports cars. During practice for the 1954 Coupe de Paris, he swerved to avoid a stopped car and left the track, colliding with a concrete wall and a pole, killing himself and a nearby child. Mairesse was 43.
