Introduction
Doriane Pin (born 6 January 2004 in Paris) is a French racing driver who currently competes in the Formula 4 South East Asia Championship for Prema Racing. She is the 2022 Ferrari Challenge Europe champion.
Career
Karting
Having started karting at the age of nine, Pin began competing in the national championship in 2016. She remained in the competition for the next three years, finishing 10th and 5th respectively in the junior class before winning the female category in 2019. The Frenchwoman also took part in the FIA Motorsport Games in the Karting Slalom Cup alongside Esteban Masson.
Renault Clio Cup
In 2020, Pin made her car racing debut, competing for GPA Racing in the Renault Clio Cup France. She drove in the first three events of the campaign, scoring a best finish of ninth, before leaving the series.
Le Mans Cup
Progressing to full-time competition in 2021, the Frenchwoman moved into the GT3 class of the Le Mans Cup, racing for Iron Lynx. She scored five podiums and ended up fifth in the drivers' standings.
FIA Formula 3
Pin was selected to take part in a one-day FIA Formula 3 test at Magny-Cours in November 2021, alongside fellow Iron Dames racer Maya Weug and W Series drivers Nerea Martí and Irina Sidorkova.
Ferrari Challenge Europe
2021
In 2021, Pin made her debut in the Ferrari Challenge Europe in the Pro category, finishing sixth in the season finale at Mugello.
2022
The following year, she remained with Scuderia Niki Hasler - Iron Lynx for a full season of the Ferrari Challenge. Pin would dominate, winning nine out of 14 races, scoring ten pole positions and eleven fastest laps respectively and clinching the title with one round remaining. She later stated that she had "really [grown] during this year", explaining that the season taught her how to better relay feedback to her team.
European Le Mans Series
After the third round of the European Le Mans Series campaign the Frenchwoman replaced Rahel Frey in the all-female Iron Lynx lineup for the remainder of the 2022 season. Despite an early retirement at Barcelona, the squad were able to finish second in the following race at Spa-Francorchamps, where Pin set the fastest lap of the race in the GTE category. The season finale held at the Algarve International Circuit brought even more success for Pin and her teammates, with a pole position being followed up by the team's first victory in the series' history.
World Endurance Championship
As a prize for her 2022 season, Pin was invited to take part in the FIA World Endurance Championship rookie test to be held in Bahrain on the day after the last race of the season, where she drove the LMP2 title-winning Jota car.
Pin would make her prototype debut in 2023, partnering Mirko Bortolotti and Daniil Kvyat as the silver-ranked driver of Prema Racing in the WEC. Having been praised by Bortolotti after the series prologue, the official pre-season test, the Frenchwoman took her first podium of her LMP2 tenure, finishing third after Bortolotti had pitted for fuel from the lead with mere minutes to go. The following event at Portimão saw Pin starting from pole position owing to a strong qualifying performance by Bortolotti, though she would lose the lead to Sean Gelael at the start. Following a double stint, the French driver relinquished the car to Kvyat who, along with Bortolotti, ended up taking fourth. During the opening portion of the 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps Pin took the race lead in mixed weather conditions before dropping to second after an overtake from Tom Blomqvist. She lost second to the #31 WRT car in the pit stop phase, but would soon take back the position she held until the end of her run. Despite strong drives by her two teammates, a three-minute stop-and-go-penalty for a Safety car infringement meant that the #63 ended up tenth by the checkered flag.
