Andre Lotterer ignites Genesis Magma Racing’s Le Mans debut frenzy

Hyundai Shakes Up Le Mans with Unprecedented Racing Strategy

In a bold move that is sending shockwaves through the racing world, Genesis – Hyundai’s luxury brand – is making its presence known at the prestigious Le Mans 24 Hours circuit with their avant-garde approach. The Genesis Magma Racing team is gearing up for its debut in the top echelon of endurance racing like never seen before. This innovative strategy is causing a stir and here’s why.

Genesis Magma Racing is diving headfirst into the competitive realm of endurance racing, a domain where they have zero prior experience. To fast-track their journey to the top, the team has opted to immerse themselves in the LMP2 category to grasp the intricacies of endurance racing. This unorthodox tactic is set to pave the way for their Hypercar debut in 2026, with the GMR-001 poised to make a grand entrance onto the racing scene.

The brains behind Genesis Magma Racing, led by team principal Cyril Abiteboul, have strategically enlisted seasoned endurance racing experts to spearhead their foray into this new territory. With engineers like Mathieu Leroy and Justin Taylor on board, who bring a wealth of experience from powerhouse brands like Porsche, Audi, Ferrari, and Cadillac, the team is poised for success.

A key highlight of Genesis Magma Racing’s preparation is their Trajectory Programme, where emerging talents Jamie Chadwick and Mathys Jaubert are honing their skills in the #18 ORECA 07 donned in Genesis colors. These drivers, carefully selected to lead the team to victory, are undergoing intensive training and development to ensure they are primed for the challenges that lie ahead.

Partnering with IDEC Sport, a seasoned player in endurance racing, Genesis Magma Racing is leveraging their expertise and resources to propel themselves to the forefront of the racing world. This strategic alliance is a game-changer, allowing Genesis Magma Racing to acclimatize to the demanding world of endurance racing and gain a competitive edge for their Hypercar debut in 2026.

As the anticipation builds for the Hypercar unveiling, the GMR and ORECA teams are working tirelessly behind the scenes to bring this revolutionary vehicle to life. The V8 twin-turbo engine, a marvel of engineering derived from Hyundai’s WRC car, has successfully completed its first fire-up, signaling a new era in racing technology.

With the excitement reaching a fever pitch, all eyes are on Genesis Magma Racing as they gear up for their momentous debut at Le Mans. The stage is set, the stakes are high, and the world is watching as Hyundai revolutionizes the world of endurance racing.
