GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • LILOU WADOUX is making history as the first woman to compete in Pro for a full Endurance Cup campaign with AF Corse’s #50 Ferrari 296 GT3 Evo. The 24-year-old has earned her spot after previous one-off appearances in lower classes, now stepping up to share drives with Arthur Leclerc and Sean Gelael in what represents a massive breakthrough for women in GT racing’s premier category.
  • STEPHANE KOX brings a family dynamic to the new KPX Motorsport team, co-driving their BMW M4 GT3 Evo in Sprint Cup alongside her father Peter Kox, who co-founded the team. This father-daughter pairing adds an intriguing personal element to what’s shaping up as an expanded and competitive field for the 2026 season.
  • CARRIE SCHRIENER joins Tresor Attempto Racing’s Bronze Cup effort, piloting the #88 Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo II in Endurance Cup rounds alongside Daniele Di Amato. With Sebastian Øgaard completing their Sprint Cup lineup, Schriener adds to what’s becoming a notably stronger female presence across multiple categories in this year’s championship.
