Dorian Pin is turning more and more towards car. In his absolute dream of reaching Formula 1 in the long term, the young woman, already involved in F1 Academy where she wears the colors of Mercedes, the 20-year-old Frenchwoman will compete in her first season of FRECA in parallel. She will represent the Iron Dames, Deborah Mayer's structure becoming the very first all-female team in the championship. The Habs will in fact be associated with the outgoing F1 Academy champion, Marta Garcia (23), announced Tuesday in the magenta ranks.

« I am grateful for this opportunity to participate in such a championship, rejoices Doriane Pin. I am fully committed to this new challenge and I can't wait to be on the track and make the most of it. It's fantastic to take another big step in single-seater racing with Iron Dames and Mercedes. With Marta, we aim to inspire young girls around the world to fearlessly pursue their dreams and seize the opportunities of running. »

« I am delighted that the Iron Dames project is entering FRECA with Doriane and Marta, adds Deborah Mayer, founder of the Iron Dames project. Entering a new single-seater championship is another step in our desire to promote and develop the brightest female talents in motorsport. We look forward to seeing them take on this challenge and continue their path to the highest level. »

With this double single-seater program, the question arises ofEndurance. Both the F1 Academy and the WEC, where Doriane Pin is also entered in a Lamborghini Huracán GT3 of the Iron Dames, were reconcilable, this is not the case with the FRECA calendar since several date conflicts exist. “ Pocket Rocket » will thus miss the 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, at least, since the opening of the regional single-seater championship at Hockenheim will take place the same weekend as the Belgian event. However, we are able to confirm that it will be good at the start of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 15 June.

For the future, nothing is yet set in stone, but the Parisian could potentially miss the meetings in São Paulo (July 14) and Fuji (September 15) since FRECA will be in Mugello and Austria at the same time. On the other hand, it could be present without problem in Austin (September 1) and Bahrain (November 2) since there is no clash of dates with the Regional Formula.
