Sacha Fenestraz Jules (born 28 July 1999) is a French-Argentine racing driver.
Born in France to Argentine and Colombian parents, but raised in Argentina, Fenestraz began karting in 2006 at the age of seven, partaking in events across France and Argentina.
In 2015, Fenestraz graduated to single-seaters. He partook in the French F4 Championship, where he claimed three victories and eleven junior victories. As a result, he finished as Junior F4 champion and vice-champion in the overall standings.
In 2016, Fenestraz switched to Formula Renault 2.0 with Tech 1 Racing. He claimed his first pole position at the Monaco round, following the exclusion of former pole sitter Lando Norris, and subsequently took his first victory in the race. He followed that up with a second pole and victory at the final race at Estoril to finish fifth in the overall standings. He also claimed a victory and finished fifth in the Northern European Cup.
After testing with them in the post-season test at Estoril, Fenestraz signed with team champions Josef Kaufmann Racing for 2017.
Fenestraz's brother-in-law is three time WTCC champion José María López.
