LÉNA BÜHLER Nabs Fourth Top-5 Finish at Silverstone Le Mans Cup Debut

September 16, 2025

• LÉNA BÜHLER delivered another impressive performance in her rookie LMP3 season, securing fifth place at Silverstone alongside teammate Matteo Quintarelli. The 23-year-old Swiss driver, who made history earlier this season as the first woman to win a Le Mans Cup race outright, showed her adaptability by immediately finding pace at the iconic British circuit on her first visit there.
• Starting from the front row after qualifying second, BÜHLER faced early challenges when she was pushed wide at the start and dropped to eighth in tricky conditions. She battled through traffic and defended against experienced competitors before handing the car to Quintarelli, who mounted an impressive charge through the field to secure their fourth top-five finish of the season.
• The result keeps BÜHLER fourth in the championship standings with one round remaining at Portimão, where she’ll have a shot at the vice-champion title. Her consistency this season – from recovering from first-lap contact in Barcelona to that breakthrough victory at Le Mans – proves she belongs at the front of the LMP3 field and validates her step up from F1 Academy success to endurance racing.
