““Looking ahead to the 2026 season, I am very excited to work with Inter Europol. It is an amazing opportunity to race on legendary circuits and to continue developing with such a professional and respected team. The LMP3 rookie test really opened my eyes to the international level and confirmed my ambition to pursue an international racing career. A big thank you to Synergy and to everyone who supports and believes in this project.”
Shawn Rashid
„I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to join Inter Europol Competition for the full 2026 season. Our one-off race together at the end of last year ended in victory, and I’m excited to build on that momentum and chase more success with the team!”
The 2026 Michelin Le Mans Cup season gets underway in April at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, with a six-round calendar running alongside the European Le Mans Series and visiting circuits including Le Castellet, Spa-Francorchamps and Portimão.
