GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • LILOU WADOUX delivered a masterclass performance alongside Simon Mann and Alessandro Pier Guidi in the No. 21 AF Corse Ferrari, securing a commanding GTD victory at Motul Petit Le Mans. The trio finished 4.158 seconds clear of their Ferrari teammates, proving that when you give women equal machinery and opportunity, they don’t just compete—they dominate. This wasn’t a lucky break or charity case; this was pure speed and racecraft on one of America’s most demanding circuits.
  • Ferrari’s 1-2 finish in GTD wasn’t just impressive—it was a statement, with WADOUX’s winning Ferrari finishing over 20 seconds ahead of third place. While the men’s GTD Pro class saw typical championship drama with penalties and contact, the GTD race showcased clean, professional driving that resulted in a decisive victory. The French driver proved once again that talent transcends gender when given the right platform to perform.
  • The race’s early drama eliminated several GTD contenders in a multi-car incident, but WADOUX and her AF Corse team stayed clean and capitalized on their opportunity. This victory adds another chapter to what’s becoming an increasingly impressive resume for women in GT racing, showing that consistent performance and strategic thinking win races just as much as raw speed. We’re watching the future of motorsports unfold, and it includes drivers like WADOUX setting the pace.
