# Doriane Pin

Doriane Pin (born 6 January 2004) is a French racing driver who is part of the Iron Dames programme and the Mercedes Junior Team. She is set to compete in F1 Academy and the Formula Regional European Championship with Prema Racing.
Her most notable accolades include the 2022 Ferrari Challenge Europe title, a class win at the 2022 24 Hours of Spa, and victories in multiple Formula 4 series.

## Early career
### Karting

Having started karting at the age of nine, Pin began competing in the national championship in 2016. She remained in the competition for the next three years, finishing 10th and 5th respectively in the junior class before winning the female category in 2019. The Frenchwoman also took part in the FIA Motorsport Games in the Karting Slalom Cup alongside Esteban Masson.

### Renault Clio Cup

In 2020, Pin made her car racing debut, competing for GPA Racing in Renault Clio Cup France. She drove in the first three events of the campaign, finishing second in the junior category with a best finish of ninth.

### Le Mans Cup

Progressing to full-time competition in 2021, the Frenchwoman moved into the GT3 class of the Le Mans Cup, racing for Iron Lynx alongside Sarah Bovy and Manuela Gostner. She scored five podiums and finished fifth in the drivers' standings.

### FIA Formula 3

Pin was selected to take part in a one-day FIA Formula 3 test at Magny-Cours in November 2021, alongside fellow Iron Dames racer Maya Weug and W Series drivers Nerea Martí and Irina Sidorkova.

## Ferrari Challenge & ELMS debut
### 2021

In 2021, Pin made her debut in the Ferrari Challenge Europe in the Pro category, finishing sixth in the season finale at Mugello.

### 2022

The following year, she remained with Scuderia Niki Hasler - Iron Lynx for a full season of the Ferrari Challenge. Pin would dominate, winning nine out of 14 races, scoring ten pole positions and eleven fastest laps respectively and clinching the title with one round remaining. She later stated that she had "really [grown] during this year", explaining that the season taught her how to better relay feedback to her team.

### European Le Mans Series

After the third round of the 2022 European Le Mans Series campaign, the Frenchwoman replaced Rahel Frey in the all-female Iron Lynx lineup for the remainder of the season. Despite an early retirement at Barcelona, the squad were able to finish second in the following race at Spa-Francorchamps, where Pin set the fastest lap of the race in the GTE category. The season finale held at the Algarve International Circuit brought even more success for Pin and her teammates, with a pole position being followed up by the team's first victory in the series' history.

## WEC & IMSA
### 2023: LMP2 debut

As a prize for her 2022 season, Pin was invited to take part in the FIA World Endurance Championship rookie test to be held in Bahrain on the day after the last race of the season, where she drove the LMP2 title-winning Jota car.
Pin would make her prototype debut in 2023, partnering Mirko Bortolotti and Daniil Kvyat as the silver-ranked driver of Prema Racing in the WEC. Having been praised by Bortolotti after the series prologue, the official pre-season test, the Frenchwoman took her first podium of her LMP2 tenure, finishing third after Bortolotti had pitted for fuel from the lead with mere minutes to go. The following event at Portimão saw Pin starting from pole position owing to a strong qualifying performance by Bortolotti, though she would lose the lead to Sean Gelael at the start. Following a double stint, the French driver relinquished the car to Kvyat who, along with Bortolotti, ended up taking fourth. During the opening portion of the 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps Pin took the race lead in mixed weather conditions before dropping to second after an overtake from Tom Blomqvist. She lost second to the #31 WRT car in the pit stop phase, but would soon take back the position she held until the end of her run. Despite strong drives by her two teammates, a three-minute stop-and-go-penalty for a Safety car infringement meant that the #63 ended up tenth by the chequered flag. At the end of the season, she won the FIA WEC Revelation of the Year Award, becoming the first woman to do so.
During the same year, Pin partook in three out of four Endurance Cup races in the IMSA SportsCar Championship, racing in the GTD class for the Iron Dames. She stood out at the season-ending Petit Le Mans race, posting the best laptime averages across the GTD category, though the team would finish three laps down thanks to mechanical troubles.

### 2024: LMGT3

With the removal of the LMP2 category from WEC and Prema discontinuing their LMP2 program entirely, Pin would rejoin the Iron Dames for the 2024 FIA WEC season, teaming up with Michelle Gatting and Sarah Bovy in the new LMGT3 category. Her season was cut short after Imola by her Formula Regional European Championship campaign, and she was provisionally replaced by Rahel Frey for all rounds except Le Mans. She was eventually forced to withdraw from Le Mans as well after suffering broken ribs in a cycling accident.

## Single-seater career
### Formula 4
#### South East Asia

Pin made her single-seater debut in 2023, competing in the final two rounds of the Formula 4 SEA Championship with Prema alongside rookies Kean Nakamura-Berta and Tomass Štolcermanis. She took three podiums and a victory in Sepang, finishing second in the championship.

#### United Arab Emirates

In 2024, Pin raced for four rounds in the Formula 4 UAE Championship with Prema, finishing tenth in the championship, as well as taking one pole position and a victory in preparation for her F1 Academy campaign that year.

#### F1 Academy

Pin entered the 2024 F1 Academy season with Prema Racing, representing Mercedes under the series' Formula One constructor affiliation system. Simultaneously, Pin signed with the Mercedes Junior Team.
At the first round in Jeddah, she took pole position for both races and led every single lap to claim victory in Races 1 and 2, only missing out on the fastest lap in Race 1 for a grand slam weekend. Pin was later demoted to ninth in Race 2 having passed the chequered flag twice at racing speed due to a combination of team and driver errors. Further victories in Zandvoort and Lusail saw her finish the season as runner-up, 121 points behind Abbi Pulling.
Pin was retained by Mercedes and Prema for the 2025 F1 Academy season.

### Formula Regional
#### 2024

Pin raced for Iron Dames once more in the Formula Regional European Championship as part of the series' first all-female lineup alongside Marta García. During the second round at Spa-Francorchamps, she was withdrawn from the second race due to a "flu-like condition" and ultimately skipped the third round at Zandvoort due to fractured ribs sustained in a cycling accident. She finished the season with a highest finish of 14th, placing 27th in the overall standings.

#### 2025

Pin will return to the Formula Regional European Championship in 2025 with Prema Racing, alongside a partial campaign in the Formula Regional Middle East Championship.
