Frederik Vesti, a talented young racing driver, is ending his successful junior formula career and transitioning to endurance racing. Despite his impressive track record, including winning the 2019 Formula Regional European Championship and achieving second place in last year’s F2 season, Vesti was unable to secure a seat in Formula 1. However, he has now secured a drive in the ELMS with Cool Racing, driving the #47 ORECA 07 alongside Alejandro Garcia and Ferdinand Habsburg. The team’s co-founder, Nicolas Lapierre, expressed excitement about the line-up for the 2024 season and their goals for the future. Cool Racing has had significant success in the ELMS, winning titles in the LMP3 class and achieving runner-up in the LMP2 Pro/Am subclass. The 2024 ELMS campaign will kick off at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, followed by races at Le Castellet, Imola, Spa-Francorchamps, Mugello, and Portimao.
