Rupert Keegan (born February 26, 1955 in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex) is a former racing driver from England. He participated in 37 Formula One Grands Prix, debuting on May 8, 1977. He scored no championship points.

Keegan won the 1976 British Formula Three Championship, which propelled him into Formula One. After seasons with Hesketh and Surtees, neither of them particularly competitive teams, he won the Aurora F1 Championship in 1979. A return to the F1 World Championship with RAM driving their Williams FW07B yielded little in the way of results, as did a few races with March.

After F1, Keegan raced in the United States in CART, and also in endurance racing. After his retirement, he pursued business interests and also worked as a racing instructor.
