LÉNA BÜHLER & Quintarelli Charge from P13 to 5th at Spa in Title Hunt

August 26, 2025

GRRL! SUMMARY:

LÉNA BÜHLER and teammate Matteo Quintarelli delivered another masterclass in damage limitation at Spa-Francorchamps, charging from a disappointing 13th-place qualifying position to finish fifth in the Michelin Le Mans Cup. The 23Events Racing duo proved once again that raw pace means nothing if you can’t execute when the pressure’s on – and they absolutely delivered when it mattered most.
The Swiss driver continues building her championship credentials in her rookie LMP3 season, showing the racecraft that made her a winner at the Road To Le Mans earlier this year. BÜHLER’s opening stint was particularly impressive, gaining positions immediately at the start and maintaining composure through multiple safety car periods while consistently running competitive lap times in the 2:14s.
With this result, BÜHLER remains firmly in the title fight as 23Events Racing sits just four points behind second place in the standings. Her seamless transition from F1 Academy vice-champion to prototype racing frontrunner continues to turn heads – we’re watching someone who clearly belongs at this level and isn’t fazed by the step up in competition.
