GRRL! SUMMARY:
- CINDY GUDET and GABRIELA JÍLKOVÁ proved their consistency matters more than flash, scoring their third and fourth Pro-Am podiums of the GT4 European Series season at the Nürburgring. The all-female Matmut Évolution duo turned what started as late drama in Race 1 into a P3 finish, then dominated most of Race 2 before settling for second place—showing exactly why they’re the crew to watch in this championship.
- These two aren’t just collecting participation trophies—they’re building something bigger. As the only all-female crew on the GT4 European Series grid, GUDET and JÍLKOVÁ have weathered everything from other drivers’ mistakes costing them finishes at Spa to mechanical issues, yet they keep bouncing back stronger. GUDET’s also juggling a fourth-place run in Ligier European Series while JÍLKOVÁ competes in Indian Racing League, proving their talent extends far beyond one series.
- The Nürburgring weekend showcased their tactical racing intelligence perfectly. JÍLKOVÁ qualified P3 in pre-qualifying (best among Pro-Am competitors), then both drivers delivered when it counted. GUDET led the Pro-Am class for most of Race 2 with genuinely fast pace, not just strategy luck, while JÍLKOVÁ held off charging competitors until an overly ambitious move from a Silver class driver cost them the lead. They’re now just 21 points from third in Pro-Am standings with Barcelona remaining—and honestly, their first class win feels inevitable at this point.
