Anthony William Brise (28 March 1952 in Erith, Kent – 29 November 1975 in Arkley, London) was a British racing driver from England. He won two of the three British Formula Three Championships in 1973. He participated in 10 Formula One Grands Prix, and scored one championship point.
Brise made his Grand Prix debut on April 27, 1975 for Williams but after one race switched to the team run by former world champion Graham Hill, where he showed great potential. Later in 1975 Hill, Brise and four other members of the team were killed when their plane, piloted by Hill, crashed at Arkley golf course, in thick fog.
