GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • LILOU WADOUX has been selected for her second WEC Rookie Test appearance, this time behind the wheel of Ferrari’s #50 Hypercar at Bahrain. While the provisional entry list reveals 26 cars testing for the 2026 season, WADOUX’s selection for the Prancing Horse demonstrates Ferrari’s continued confidence in her development – a significant step up from whatever her first rookie test involved.
  • The five-hour test session will see factory teams in Hypercar and customer teams in LMGT3 evaluate new talent, with WADOUX joining Alessio Rovera who gets the Le Mans-winning #83 Ferrari 499P. Her placement in Ferrari’s lineup puts her among an elite group getting extended seat time in top-tier prototype machinery.
  • While several entry slots remain unfilled across the grid – including both Iron Lynx Mercedes entries and Proton Competition Mustangs – WADOUX’s confirmed spot signals Ferrari’s commitment to nurturing her progression. The test represents another crucial opportunity for her to build experience in the world’s premier endurance racing series ahead of potential 2026 opportunities.

UPCOMING:

  • WEC Rookie Test – November 3, Bahrain International Circuit
  • Rolex 24 at Daytona – January 2025
