Alx Danielsson (born April 1, 1981, in Östersund), is a Swedish racing driver and the 2006 champion of the World Series by Renault.

Danielsson's career started in karting in 1998, where he stayed until 1999 before moving up to Formula Ford. In 2004 Danielsson progressed to Formula Renault V6 in Europe and Asia before moving onto the World Series by Renault in Europe.

In 2006 he was racing in the World Series by Renault for the British team Comtec Racing and doing exceptionally well.
