GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • DORIANE PIN delivered a masterclass at Le Mans, topping FP1 with 3:35.248 and qualifying with a blistering 3:34.662—fastest in every sector. The Duqueine Team #30 Oreca driver dominated LMP2, clearing rivals by over half a second.
  • PIN’s return to La Sarthe since 2023 came after strong ELMS momentum. Stepping up from LMP2 Pro-Am to the highly competitive Pro class alongside Verschoor and Andlauer, she immediately established herself as a serious contender.
  • LILOU WADOUX and Richard Mille AF Corse struggled in LMGT3 qualifying. Bronze-rated teammate Custodio Toledo piloted the striking Brazilian-liveried #150 Ferrari to 20th, missing the top-15 cutoff despite improving to 3:57.991—just 1.6 seconds off pace.
  • WADOUX’s Ferrari crew arrived with strong credentials: ELMS title contenders in 2025 and fresh off a Sebring 12 Hours class victory. Two practice sessions remain to unlock speed before the endurance classic begins.

UPCOMING:

  • 24 Hours of Le Mans – Race Start (Date TBD)
  • Le Mans Night Practice Session – Wednesday Evening
  • Le Mans Free Practice 3 – Thursday
