June 15, 2026

GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • DORIANE PIN maintains LMP2 lead for Duqueine Team through 20 hours despite emergency fuel stop drama and Safety Car interventions that erased advantages. Consistently delivered low-3:40 lap times under pressure from Inter Europol challengers.
  • LILOU WADOUX executed strong night stint recovery drive in LMGT3, regularly posting 3:57s to climb from 19th on grid toward top-ten despite suboptimal BoP handicapping the Richard Mille AF Corse Ferrari 296.
  • PIN’s opening stints proved instrumental in establishing Duqueine’s advantage early, with Verschoor and Andlauer rebuilding margins repeatedly neutralized by Safety Cars and Full Course Yellows throughout the dramatic endurance classic.
  • WADOUX and Agostini combined for consistent pace gains through mid-race, with the Frenchwoman’s steady 3:57 sequences and the Italian’s 3:56 laps moving the Ferrari from 14th back into contention for points-paying positions.

UPCOMING:

  • Final four hours of 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans
