Rahel Frey (born 23 February 1986 in Niederbipp, Canton of Bern) is a Swiss racing driver. She has competed in such series as Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0, International Formula Master and the German Formula Three Championship.

Frey competed in the LMGT1 category of 2010 24 Hours of Le Mans. She shared No. 61 Matech Competition Ford GT with fellow Swiss female drivers Natacha Gachnang and Cyndie Allemann. All three participating Fords were forced to retire from the race. Frey then joined the Audi DTM squad and replaced Katherine Legge in 2011. She then decided that she did not wish to carry on with her DTM career and left at the start of the 2013 season.

In 2019, Frey joined the all female Kessell team with Manuela Gostner and Michelle Gatting for the European Le Mans Series.[1] They were the first all-woman team to finish since 1977, and they were 39th and ninth in their class.[2]
