• Genesis Magma Racing has secured JAMIE CHADWICK as part of their three-driver lineup for their ambitious 2026 Le Mans hypercar campaign, joining Mathys Jaubert and André Lotterer. While their LMP2 collaboration with IDEC Sport ended early this year after a wheel failure, the team gained valuable experience that will inform their hypercar program development.
• The team announced key leadership appointments with Anouck Abadie stepping into the Team Manager role, bringing gender diversity to the senior management structure alongside Chief Engineer Justin Taylor and Sporting Director Gabriele Tarquini. This strategic hiring demonstrates Genesis’ commitment to building a comprehensive operation from the ground up.
• CHADWICK and the team have already proven their competitive edge in the European Le Mans Series, securing both a LMP2 class win at Barcelona and an overall victory at Le Castellet. These results provide a solid foundation as Genesis develops their GMR-001 hypercar, which features an innovative V8 engine combining two of Hyundai’s 1.6-liter turbocharged units.
