The Iron Dames has retained Michelle Gatting, Rahel Frey and Sarah Bovy for the remaining four IMSA Endurance Cup races of the 2025 season.
Having competed in the 2024 IMSA SportsCar Championship, the famous trio will continue their efforts throughout the 2025 endurance campaign. The first round of five recently took place at the 24 Hours of Daytona, where they were joined by former Le Mans Cup driver Karen Gaillard, now driving in the Porsche Carrera Cup France. The Iron Dames team receives technical support from Proton Competition and uses the Porsche 911 GT3 R package in their third IMSA Endurance Cup season, as well as in the upcoming FIA World Endurance Championship and European Le Mans Series campaigns in the LMGT3 classes. The 73rd running of the 12 Hours of Sebring on March 15 will be the second round of the IMSA schedule and the Endurance Cup calendar. Following that, the Six Hours of the Glen will take place on June 22, and the Battle on the Bricks will be held as a six-hour endurance race for the second time since the return of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course to the IMSA calendar. Lastly, the 28th running of Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta will bring the season to a close with a 10-hour endurance challenge. Gatting qualified 10th in the GTD category at the Daytona 24 Hours, where the team finished in eighth place, not surpassing last year’s sixth-place finish. The Porsche 911 GT3 R replaces the Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 used in previous seasons, promising better results and aiming for a maiden podium appearance.
