Today, Italian racing team, Iron Lynx has announced an exciting driver line-up that is set to tackle multiple GT championships, including the FIA World Endurance Championship (FIA WEC), European Le Mans Series (ELMS), Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup (GTWC), Ferrari Challenge (FC), including the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 24 Hours of Spa in 2022.  

Michelle Gatting, part of the Iron Dames project, has written her name into the history books today, becoming the first female to be crowned the overall champion of Ferrari Challenge Europe Trofeo Pirelli. Starting the race with a 29-point lead, Gatting managed to battle through a challenging race, much of it under safety car conditions, to bring her Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo home in P4 securing the championship despite the fact that there’s still one race left in the series this season.

The Iron Lynx squad raced across France and Austria at the weekend, fielding six cars across the European Le Mans Series at the Red Bull Ring and Italian Formula 4 at the Paul Ricard circuit.

Italian racing team Iron Lynx will propel a young racer on her first step towards single-seater glory this weekend, as she competes in her first ever car race. Dutch-Spanish driver Maya Weug is 16 years old and having triumphed in last year’s “FIA Girls on Track – Rising Stars” programme, has become the first girl to join the prestigious Ferrari Driver Academy.
