Doriane Pin, a rising star in motorsport, announces her return to endurance racing for 2026. The F1 Academy champion joins the Duqueine Team in the European Le Mans Series. At 22 years old, she reconnects with her roots after a season in the WEC with Prema. Partnered with Giorgio Roda and Richard Verschoor in the Pro-Am class, she aims for strong results to secure a seat in Hypercar.
At the same time, Doriane becomes a development driver for Mercedes F1, with tests scheduled. Her dream of Formula 1 remains intact, but she knows that the ELMS is an essential stepping stone. No female crew has yet been integrated into the male teams in endurance racing, which is a major challenge for the driver.
Her first laps will be on April 12 in Barcelona, kicking off a season with six events across Europe. Doriane Pin is gearing up to make an impression.
