Guy Richard Goronwy Edwards (born in Macclesfield, Cheshire on December 30, 1942) is a former racing driver from England. Although best known for his sportscar and UK Formula One career, as well as for brokering sponsorship deals, Edwards participated in 17 World Championship Formula One Grands Prix, debuting on January 13, 1974.

He competed in the Aurora Formula One Championship in the UK from 1978 to 1980, scoring several wins driving March, Fittipaldi and Arrows chassis. In 1979 he scored the only race win for a Fittipaldi Formula One chassis.
