For the 93rd edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Iron Dames are debuting a unique white livery on their No. 95 Porsche 911 GT3 R, a departure from their trademark pink. The team’s all-female crew will sport this special livery featuring powerful words like passion and commitment, aimed at conveying the essence of the Iron Dames project.
Despite the absence of the iconic pink, some fans are saddened while others, like Michelle Gatting, appreciate the change and believe it could be advantageous. Gatting stated that the distinct pink color sometimes leads to biases on the track, making their racing experience more challenging.
Rahel Frey also expressed enthusiasm for the new livery, emphasizing the importance of conveying strong messages through the car’s design. The Danish driver suggested that a less eye-catching color scheme could potentially offer a competitive edge by eliminating preconceptions based on stereotypes associated with the team’s traditional pink livery.
In the end, the Iron Dames embrace this one-off white livery for Le Mans as a way to stand out and challenge the norms in the male-dominated world of motorsport.
