Guillaume Moreau (born 8 March 1983 in Limoges, France) is a French racing driver who competed in the Le Mans Series. In 2008, Moreau shared the GT1 class championship with teammate Patrice Goueslard in the Le Mans Series driving a Luc Alphand Corvette.
After beginning his career in single-seaters, Moreau switched to sports car racing. He competed in five consecutive editions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans race, from 2007 until 2011, with a best result of seventh overall and second in class in the 2010 event. He was also scheduled to drive in the 2012 race, but withdrew after crashing heavily during the test day preceding the event, sustaining damage to his twelfth vertebra and compressing his spinal cord. After successful surgery, he began recuperating from his injuries. By 2014, Moreau had regained the ability to walk, and even returned to the seat of a race car with two private tests. Despite this, he chose to end his racing career, later taking over his father's company "La Scierie du Limousin" after he himself had been involved in a serious motorcycle accident.
Moreau now reportedly manages the insurance of around 100 racing drivers.
