April 18, 2026

• NINA ØSTERGAARD secured class victory in her Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe debut at Paul Ricard, driving overtakes in Race 1 after setting fastest LB Cup lap and seizing the lead on lap seven before handing to teammate Møller Demant.
• The Danish driver arrived prepared from GT Winter Series podiums at Valencia, benefiting from factory driver Frederik Schandorff’s coaching. She qualified P18 overall with 2:08.222, second in LB Cup for her series debut.
• Race 2 showed championship potential before contact: Møller Demant built three-second lead with low-2:11 pace, but ØSTERGAARD suffered chicane spin from Basalamah contact on lap 15, dropping from podium contention to fifth despite competitive pace.
• The DC Motorsport pairing demonstrated front-running speed throughout Paul Ricard, consistently lapping quicker than LB Cup rivals. They head to Imola round two on May 9-10 as legitimate class contenders after impressive opener.
