GRRL! SUMMARY:
- LILOU WADOUX wrapped up an extraordinary 2025 campaign by securing the ELMS LMGT3 vice-championship at Portimão, finishing just eight points behind the title winners despite facing significant success ballast penalties. The Ferrari factory driver’s eighth-place finish capped a season that included victories at Paul Ricard and Silverstone, proving once again that she belongs among the elite tier of GT3 pilots.
- The Richard Mille AF Corse team entered the finale as championship leaders but faced the reality of carrying heavy success ballast that compromised their Ferrari’s pace throughout the weekend. Despite starting seventh and dropping to as low as 13th during the race, WADOUX’s masterful final stint showcased exactly why she’s earned factory status – climbing through the field with consistent, rapid laps that reminded everyone watching why she’s considered one of the most complete drivers in the paddock.
- This ELMS vice-championship adds another impressive chapter to WADOUX’s remarkable 2025 story, coming just one week after she became the first woman since 2017 to win an IMSA title by claiming the Michelin Endurance Cup. While missing out on the European crown by such a narrow margin stings, her dual-continent success proves she’s operating at a level that transcends regional boundaries – establishing herself as a global force in endurance racing who can deliver results wherever the calendar takes her.
