French racing driver Philippe Alliot is best remembered for his performances in Sports Cars with Peugeot.

In Formula 1, he sometimes showed great one lap speed, like at the 1989 French Grand Prix, where he qualified his Lola LC89-Lamborghini 7th on the grid, amongst 30 cars.

In the race, he was easily in the top 6, when he was forced to retire with engine problems. The race was won by Alain Prost in his McLaren-Honda.
