FCNA Well Represented in Le Mans Doubleheader

Ferrari Challenge North America is bringing a handful of representatives to France this weekend, with nearly a dozen current or past drivers joining Ferrari Challenge Europe for a pair of races.

Circuit de la Sarthe is the sports car racing hot spot this weekend featuring the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans, and doubles as the fourth of six events for FCE in 2026.

Meanwhile, Ferrari Challenge North America reached its halfway point last month during Ferrari Racing Days at Circuit of The Americas and travels to WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca next week.

In total, 16 drivers across the U.S., Canada and Mexico are entered in the 60-car field featuring the Ferrari 296 Challenge model, and ten of those pilots can be found on the current North America championship leaderboard.

Leading the way across the pond are Trofeo Pirelli Am and Coppa Shell Am points leaders, Yahn Bernier (Ferrari of Seattle) and Melissa Kozyra (Ferrari of Naples), respectively. Bernier has four podiums through six races this season, while Kozyra scored three consecutive wins from Sebring International Raceway to COTA en route to her lead.

Mitchell Green (Ferrari Westlake) – who is four points shy of Bernier in Trofeo Pirelli Am – also joins the field. Plus, the second- and third-place runners Stateside in Coppa Shell Am, Fabian Sperman (The Collection) and Steve Check (Ferrari of San Francisco), will continue chasing Kozyra this weekend.

Additional full-season FCNA drivers at Le Mans include Jay Logan (Ferrari of Austin); Luis Perusquia (Rossocorsa); Bernard Gomez (Ferrari of Houston); and John Lennon (Ferrari of San Francisco). Partial-season contenders include Rodin Younessi (Ferrari of Palm Beach) and Roy Carroll (Foreign Cars Italia).

Two former series champions – Dylan Medler (The Collection) and Lisa Clark (Pellin Racing) – are also on the entry list, alongside Ofir Levy (Ferrari of Seattle) who finished sixth in last season’s Shell class championship.

Three drivers round out the roster of North American talent and look to build on their experience with the Ferrari 296 Challenge – a pair of Formula Racing teammates in Blake McDonald and Canadian Eric Cheung, plus Kevin Charles King with FBO-NACentE Racing.

Race 1 for Ferrari Challenge is scheduled for Thursday at 6:30 p.m. local time (12:30 p.m. EST), followed by Race 2 on Saturday at 9:15 a.m. prior to the start of the 24 Hours of Le Mans at 4 p.m.

The two Ferrari Challenge races will stream live on the Ferrari YouTube channel, while the historic endurance event will be available on FIAWEC+.
