24 August 2026 – After a well-deserved break, R-ace GP returned to the track this weekend for the fourth round of the Michelin Le Mans Cup at Spa-Francorchamps, in Belgium. It was a remarkable return, as the Vendée-based team finished on the top step of the podium with the #85 car driven by Enzo Peugeot and Danial Frost.

Free practice

On Friday morning, the #86 (Zack Scoular and Léna Bühler) set the 5^th fastest time, whilst the #85 (Enzo Peugeot and Danial Frost) finished 7^th in Free Practice 1.

Free Practice 2 confirmed the #85’s progress, as it climbed to 2^nd place, whilst the #86 finished 7^th.

Qualifying

Held in the rain, the qualifying session saw Enzo Peugeot secure 3^rd place on the grid for the #85, whilst Zack Scoular qualified the #86 in 9^th place.

“We were positioned at the start of the pit lane and we paid the price for that a little during qualifying. It wasn’t a good position, as we weren’t able to complete the final lap, unlike the two rivals who finished ahead of the #85.” Fabien Lavergne, Team Manager.

Race

The first hour of the race was marked by numerous incidents and several safety cars.

The second half of the race went more smoothly. This gave the #85 the chance to move up the order. Thanks to some well-timed overtakes at key moments, the Peugeot/Frost crew maintained a good pace and took the lead. Around fifteen minutes before crossing the finish line, it dropped back to 2^nd place. However, the leader was handed a penalty, and victory ultimately went to the #85.

The race proved more challenging for the #86: several incidents and avoidable penalties hampered the Scoular/Bühler crew’s result, and they ultimately finished 14th despite showing real potential.

The #85 still in the championship lead

This new success allows R-ace GP to stay on top of the championship and extend their lead in the overall standings (20 points clear of their nearest rival).

See you on 11 and 12 September at Silverstone for the fifth round of the season.

May 4, 2026 – The second round of the Michelin Le Mans Cup took place this weekend at Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet. It was a challenging meeting for R-ace GP, but one that still ended with an excellent second-place finish for the Duqueine D09 #85.

Free Practice

On Friday, the #85 (Peugeot-Frost) and the #86 (Scoular-Bühler) finished P7 and P16 respectively during FP1. Later in the day, both crews improved their lap times and ended the session in P3 (#85) and P9 (#86).

Qualifying

On Saturday at midday, the team endured a difficult qualifying session. Caught in traffic, the #86 driven by Zack Scoular and the #85 led by Enzo Peugeot could do no better than P6 and P10.

Race

The race got underway at 6:20 PM. Léna Bühler in the #86 made an excellent start and quickly moved up to fourth position. Moments later, major scare for Danial Frost in the #85, who narrowly avoided a collision between two competitors. While the #86 climbed into third place, the #85 dropped down the order to 14th position.

Around ten minutes before the pit window opened, the #85 began its comeback and fought its way back into the top 10. Enzo Peugeot and Zack Scoular then took the wheel for the #85 and #86 respectively.

Scoular was running in second position, while Peugeot steadily closed in on his rivals. Just as the #86 looked capable of fighting for victory, a rear wing issue forced Zack Scoular back into the pits. Despite attempts to repair the problem, the #86 was ultimately forced to retire.

In the closing minutes of the race, Enzo Peugeot capitalized on a rival’s mistake to take second place, securing a podium finish alongside teammate Danial Frost.

All eyes on Le Mans

Although far from an easy weekend, the #85 nevertheless managed to retain the championship lead. The team now heads to the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit in one month’s time for the third race of the season.

April 13, 2026 – This past weekend, R-ace GP kicked off its Michelin Le Mans Cup (MLMC) season in Barcelona. As the reigning champions, the Vendée-based team quickly set the pace: a 1–2 in qualifying, victory in the race with the #85, and a third-place finish for the #86. Let’s take a look back at a very strong opening weekend.

This year, the team is fielding two Duqueine D09 cars in the LMP3 category: the #85 driven by Franco-Japanese driver Enzo Peugeot and Singapore’s Danial Frost, and the #86 crewed by New Zealand’s Zack Scoular and Switzerland’s Léna Bühler.

Prologue

Ahead of the official race weekend, teams and drivers took part in the traditional pre-season official test day. The #85 (Peugeot–Frost) delivered a flawless performance, topping both sessions. Results were more mixed for the #86, which finished P2 and P17.

Free Practice

In the morning, FP1 saw the #85 top the timesheets once again, with its sister car the #86, just behind in third place. FP2, later in the day, produced more moderate results, with the #85 finishing P7 and the #86 P20.

Qualifying

Early in the afternoon, Enzo Peugeot and Zack Scoular were designated to qualify the #85 and #86 respectively. Both drivers took the challenge seriously, and by the end of the session, Peugeot secured pole position with a 1:36.357 lap, while Scoular qualified in P2—locking out the front row for R-ace GP.

Race

The start of the opening race of the season was given in the late afternoon, with Danial Frost in the #85 and Léna Bühler in the #86. At the green flag, Frost made a strong getaway, while Bühler defended her position firmly. The first hour of the race was disrupted by several incidents, but both R-ace GP entries remained at the front of the field.

Both LMP3 cars were among the first to pit for the driver change. Enzo Peugeot took over the #85, while Zack Scoular climbed aboard the #86. Pushing hard on track, both drivers quickly regained their starting positions.

The #85 was the first to cross the finish line, with Enzo Peugeot and Danial Frost securing the team’s first victory of the season. Overtaken just minutes before the checkered flag, the #86 of Zack Scoular and Léna Bühler finished third, sealing a strong double podium for R-ace GP.

The team will be back in action in a few weeks’ time for the second round of the Le Mans Cup at Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet.
