GRRL! SUMMARY:
- JAMIE CHADWICK returns for her second season with Genesis Magma Racing’s Trajectory Programme, bringing proven success to the #18 ORECA 07. Last year’s trio of CHADWICK, Mathys Jaubert, and Daniel Juncadella delivered three LMP2 wins and a third-place championship finish – results that earned Jaubert and Juncadella promotions to the Hypercar programme for 2026.
- The programme expands its development focus with an interesting mix of experience and potential. While 28-year-old Laurents Hörr brings three years of LMP2 experience and a 2024 Le Mans podium, 18-year-old Valerio Rinicella arrives fresh off his Asian Le Mans Series LMP2 championship with limited prototype experience but clear ambition to reach the Hypercar programme.
- Genesis Magma Racing doubles down on driver development with the expanded roster now including Korean single-seater racers Michael Shin and Kyuho Lee alongside the core trio. The programme’s track record speaks for itself – turning development opportunities into concrete career advancement, as evidenced by the previous season’s graduates moving up to Hypercar competition.
UPCOMING:
- European Le Mans Series opener at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya (April 10-12, 2026)
