The LeMans 24 H Project is an initiative of Kessel Racing. The project sees the participation of a female only team of pilots (“Team Kessel”) to the races of the Le Mans 24H 2019. The three pilots are the swiss, Rahel Frey, the dane, Michelle Gatting, and the italian, Manuela Gostner.
The project aims at the promotion of female roles also in environments, like car races, traditionally reserved to males roles.
Team Kessel has decided to wear the emblem and name of our Foundation in recognition of our commitment to social inclusion policies during the incoming races:
- Monza Grand Prix (11-12 May 2019)
- Le Mans 24H Grand Prix (08-16 June 2019)
- Barcelona Grand Prix (20-21 July 2019)
- Silverstone Grand Prix (31 August – 01 September 2019)
- Spa Grand Prix (21-22 September 2019)
- Portimao Grand Prix (26-27 October 2019)
In honor to the commitment of Kessel Racing and Team Kessel to inclusion policies, our Foundation has decided to celebrate any victory or placement in the first three positions of Team Kessel in the above-mentioned races with a financial contribution to an association, selected by Kessel Racing, dedicated to the support of women in serious financial difficulties or victims of social exclusion.
