GRRL! SUMMARY:
- The IRON DAMES’ RAHEL FREY delivers a fifth-place finish despite being denied a podium by a late Virtual Safety Car. This marked their third top-five result of the WEC season, showcasing their resilience and skill in overcoming challenges that had previously hindered their performance in both the ELMS and WEC.
- Throughout the race, each driver contributed notably to the team’s performance, with SARAH BOVY initially putting the pink Lamborghini Huracan in contention for the lead by taking the top position mid-way through the race, followed by RAHEL FREY’s impressive double stint where she regained the lead and maintained competitive lap times. Finally, MICHELLE GATTING, despite losing positions due to tactical circumstances, showcased her speed and drive by clocking the car’s fastest lap.
- The result at Fuji is significant not only for the team’s standings, now placing them seventh in the FIA WEC LMGT3 category, but also for the representation of women in motorsports. The Iron Dames team continues to demonstrate that female racers like SARAH BOVY, RAHEL FREY, and MICHELLE GATTING can excel at the highest levels, inspiring future generations and breaking down barriers in a traditionally male-dominated sport.
