  Belgian endurance racing specialist Angelique Detavernier has built an impressive career spanning multiple racing series, developing expertise in both GT and prototype racing since her debut in 2013.

  EARLY YEARS

  Born on January 24, 1986, in Verviers, Belgium, Angelique began her motorsports journey after winning a karting competition in 2013, which launched her racing career in the VW Fun Cup in Belgium[1].

  EARLY SUCCESS

  Detavernier quickly progressed to more competitive racing in 2014, piloting a Porsche 997 GT3 Cup in the Dutch Supercar Challenge where she achieved two third-place finishes in the GTB class at Zolder and Assen[1]. That same year, she expanded her racing portfolio by competing in the Maserati Trofeo series, securing a notable tenth place at Spa, and returned to the Fun Cup where she earned a pole position[1].

  NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS

  • 2015: Finished 24th overall and 3rd in class at the Zolder 24 Hours driving a Porsche 997[1].
  • 2016: Achieved 7th place overall in the Zolder 24 Hours with a Porsche[1].
  • 2018: Finished 8th in the GT Sports Club championship with a best result of 4th place at the Hungaroring in a Ferrari 488[1].

  REPUTATION

  Throughout her career, Angelique has demonstrated remarkable adaptability by successfully competing in various racing categories and mastering different high-performance vehicles including Porsche, Ferrari, Mercedes AMG, and Audi R8 LMS models[1]. She has earned respect in the motorsports community for breaking gender barriers, emphasizing that with mental strength, women can achieve anything in racing[1]. Her persistence and versatility across endurance racing formats have established her as an inspiration for aspiring female racers.

  FUTURE GOALS/PLANS

  Following her 2024 participation with Speed Demons Delhi in the Indian Racing League, Detavernier aims to leverage her extensive racing experience to pursue further success in international prototype and GT racing series[2][4].
