He is the son of former World Rally Championship driver Grégoire De Mévius

Career[edit]

de Mévius began competing in rally in 2013, focusing primarily on the Belgian Rally Championship.[2] In 2017, de Mévius won the Junior class of the Belgian Rally Championship.[1] In 2019, de Mévius was hired by Citroën to compete in World Rally Championship-2, but lasted only one year before returning to national level rally.[3]

In 2021, de Mévius signed to drive for the Red Bull Off-Road Junior team in the T3 Light Prototype class, initially in the FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Rallies and later in the World Rally-Raid Championship after it was rebranded, and in individual events such as the Dakar Rally.[1] de Mévius took his first win in this championship in the 2022 Andalucía Rally.[4] In 2023, de Mévius remained a Red Bull driver, but instead moved to GRally Team, formed by himself and his brother Ghislain.[5] The team did not register for the World Rally-Raid Championship, instead electing to participate in individual events.
