Antonin Borga (born 21 September 1987) is a Swiss racing driver who last competed for AGS Events in GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup.

A mainstay of Cool Racing's sports car racing programme, Borga climbed the ladder from entry-level sports prototypes to LMP3 and eventually LMP2. He spent six seasons in the ELMS, and notably won on his FIA World Endurance Championship debut at Silverstone in 2019.

Career Borga made his single-seater debut in 2008, racing in LO Formula Renault 2.0 Suisse on a part-time basis for Sports Promotion. Following a three-year hiatus, Borga competed in the V de V Challenge Monoplace from 2012 to 2014, finishing runner-up in 2012 and third in 2014 before switching to touring cars in 2015.

Switching to the French Supertouring championship for 2015, Borga spent two seasons in the series where he finished third in 2015 and runner-up in 2016 for Yvan Muller Racing. Borga also made his LMP3 debut during 2016, racing in the European Le Mans Series and V de V Endurance Series for Duqueine Engineering.

Borga was retained by Duqueine Engineering for 2017, remaining with the team for a dual program in V de V Proto Endurance and European Le Mans Series. In his first full season of LMP3 competition, Borga took his maiden podium at the penultimate round of the season at Spa.

Borga switched to Cool Racing for 2018, as he competed in the LMP3 class in both the European Le Mans Series and Le Mans Cup. After finishing 18th in Le Mans Cup with a best result of fourth at Monza, Borga ended the year by finishing tenth in the ELMS standings having taken a best result of sixth in the rain-shortned race at Spa.

With Cool Racing establishing an LMP2 program ahead of 2019, Borga joined Nicolas Lapierre and Alexandre Coigny for his first season in the category. The Swiss scored his maiden LMP2 podium at Barcelona by finishing third, before finishing second at Spa on his way to tenth in points. Staying with their ELMS program for the following two years, Borga took a best result of fourth twice on his way to eighth in 2020, before taking two Pro-Am podiums the following year as he finished seventh in the class points despite missing the final two rounds.

In late 2019, Borga made his FIA World Endurance Championship debut with Cool Racing in the LMP2 class alongside Lapierre and Coigny. In his only season in the series, Borga took a lone win at Silverstone, before finishing second at Spa en route to a ninth-place points finish at season's end despite missing the season-ending round in Bahrain.

In 2022, Borga switched to Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe by joining Rexal FFF Racing Team alongside Dani Pedrosa. Taking a best result of fifth in class, Borga was 15th in the Pro-Am standings at season's end. During 2022, Borga made his debut in GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup with CMR at the 24 Hours of Spa.

Borga returned to GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup for 2023, joining AGS Events alongside Leonardo Gorini and Nico Jamin. In the four races contested, Borga scored nine points and finished 26th in the Bronze Cup.

Personal life Borga is the brother of fellow sportscar driver Lucas Borga.
