14 September 2026 – R-ace GP continues to make history in the Michelin Le Mans Cup! At Silverstone, the venue for the sixth round of the season, the #85 Duqueine D09 driven by Enzo Peugeot and Danial Frost finished second on the podium. This result allows the team to clinch both the Team and Drivers’ Championships for the second year running, with one round still to go.

Free Practices

R-ace GP maintained its strong form right from the first free practice session on Friday morning. The #85 car driven by Enzo Peugeot and Danial Frost set the second-fastest time in the first session, whilst the #86 car driven by Zack Scoular and Léna Bühler finished fifth.

This trend continued in Free Practice 2, with the #85 car this time topping the session. Enzo Peugeot and Danial Frost set the fastest time of 1:54.207. The #86 car, however, had a more difficult session and finished in fourteenth place.

Qualifying

At midday on Saturday, the #85 car continued its strong form in qualifying. Enzo Peugeot set the fastest time of the session with a lap of 1:53.717, securing pole position for the 4 Hours of Silverstone. This is the Vendée-based team’s second pole position of the season.

Meanwhile, Zack Scoular secured tenth place on the grid for the #86 car.

Race

Danial Frost started at the wheel of the #85 and held the lead in the opening laps. Behind him, Léna Bühler got off to an excellent start in the #86 and gradually worked her way up the field. The Swiss driver put in a very good stint, moving up from eleventh to sixth place.

As the race approached the halfway point, however, Danial Frost eventually lost the lead ahead of the mandatory pit stops. Enzo Peugeot then took over at the wheel of the #85, whilst Zack Scoular got into the #86.

The rest of the race proved more eventful for the #86. Several incidents, both on the track and in the pits, disrupted its progress and caused it to drop down the order.

At the front, Enzo Peugeot went on the attack. The driver of the #85 managed to reclaim the lead and crossed the chequered flag in first place. However, a penalty altered the final standings, demoting the #85 to second place.

The #86, meanwhile, finished the race in eighth place.

Another title for R-ace GP and the #85

This second-place finish is, however, enough to make the whole team happy. With the points scored at Silverstone, the #85 now has a sufficient lead in the championship to secure both the Team and Drivers’ titles.

“We had the potential to win, but we’re still very happy because our sound strategic choices secured the title for us. It’s brilliant for the team and for Danial and Enzo. It’s the reward for a very well-executed season, with consistent results and excellent performances from the whole team,” said Fabien Lavergne, Team Manager.

For the second year running, R-ace GP and the #85 Duqueine D09 have thus clinched the Michelin Le Mans Cup title at Silverstone, with one round to spare. It seems the British circuit brings the Vendée-based team good luck!

See you in Portimão on 10 October for the final round of the season!

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.
