Adolphe Clément

Gustave Adolphe Clément-Bayard (born 22nd September 1855 in Pierrefonds, France; died 10th March 1928, Paris, France) was an French racing driver and constructor.

Clément's racing career was as diverse as it was long, including time racing bicycles, motorcycles, automobiles and aircraft. He would also create a successful business empire manufacturing all of those vehicles. His final competitive race before retiring from driving was the 1902 Circuit des Ardennes, which is now regarded as the first-ever Grand Prix.

After he retired from racing, Clément-Bayard continued to produce racing cars, with their drivers including Adolphe's son Albert and Jacques Guders.
