LILOU WADOUX Sets Fastest Time in Championship-Winning Ferrari at WEC Test

November 9, 2025

• LILOU WADOUX made her mark at WEC’s end-of-season rookie test in Bahrain, posting the fastest time in the world championship-winning No. 51 AF Corse Ferrari 499P. While Antonio Felix da Costa topped the overall timesheets in his Alpine debut, WADOUX’s performance in the title-winning Ferrari shows she’s ready to make serious noise in the world’s premier endurance racing series.
• The Bahrain test gave us a glimpse of the future talent pipeline, with WADOUX standing out among a field that included former F1 driver Logan Sargeant and various other rookies across both Hypercar and LMGT3 classes. Her ability to extract pace from the Ferrari 499P that just clinched the manufacturers’ championship demonstrates she belongs in this elite company.
• While the session saw some drama with a fire incident and red flags, WADOUX kept her focus and delivered clean, competitive lap times. In a sport where opportunities for women remain limited, seeing her handle the pressure and pace in such prestigious machinery sends a clear message about what’s possible when talent meets opportunity in endurance racing’s top tier.
