One-day races and Classics David Gaudu (born 10 October 1996) is a French professional cyclist who rides for UCI WorldTeam Groupama–FDJ.

On stage 3 of the 2022 Critérium du Dauphiné Gaudu was five or six riders deep as the sprint for the finish line began.

Wout Van Aert overpowered all the other riders and as the finish approached began to celebrate when he noticed Gaudu flying past him out of the corner of his eye and immediately lowered his hands knowing he had been bested.

Gaudu slowed to a stop a few hundred meters past the finish line and celebrated with his teammates.
