Ferrari has added Lilou Wadoux to its stable of factory GT drivers. The 21-year-old Frenchwoman will race for Richard Mille AF Corse in the WEC this year:
Wadoux, 21, will contest the FIA World Endurance Championship in the GTE Am class at the wheel of the #83 Richard Mille AF Corse Ferrari 488 GTE Evo run alongside Luis Perez Companc and one another yet-to-be-named driver.
"I am thrilled and incredibly proud to join the Ferrari family," commented Wadoux."Becoming an official driver is a dream come true and brings great responsibility. However, hard work always pays off, and I will do my best to repay the people who have believed in me from the outset. Wadoux stepped up to the WEC last year following success in the one-make Alpine Europa Cup series, sharing Richard Mille's Oreca 07 initially with Charles Milesi and World Rally legend Sebastien Ogier as the squad transitioned from an all-female to a mixed-gender line-up.
