🥇 DUQUEINE D09 Secures a Brilliant Michelin Le Mans Cup Title at Silverstone
The DUQUEINE D09 once again showcased its dominance on the legendary Silverstone Circuit. By winning the British round of the Michelin Le Mans Cup 2025, the R-ace GP crew — Hugo Schwarze and Hadrien David — clinched the championship title with one race still remaining.
⚡ A Masterclass from Pole to Finish
Starting from pole position, Schwarze and David controlled the pace from the start. Despite multiple race interruptions — including a Safety Car period following an incident between the Ligier #62 and the Porsche #95 — the duo stayed focused and in command.
Under intense pressure from Romain Favre and Louis Rousset (Forestier Racing by VPS), Hadrien David remained composed to secure a flawless win and seal the title.
💪 Performance and Reliability Redefined
This victory perfectly illustrates the engineering excellence and reliability of the DUQUEINE D09, designed and built by DUQUEINE Automotive. Its aerodynamic precision, cornering stability, and speed consistency have made it a benchmark in the LMP3 category.
Silverstone’s demanding conditions once again confirmed the D09’s ability to deliver confidence, control, and championship-winning performance.

🚀 Heading Toward the 2025 Season Finale
Already crowned champions, the DUQUEINE D09 #85 and its drivers will tackle the season finale with confidence and momentum. Securing the title before the final race highlights the technical excellence and competitive strength of DUQUEINE’s LMP3 program and its customer teams.
