Team Panis Racing – ELMS

Nicolas Jamin
Born on 5 December 1995 in Rouen, France.

Following a conventional early career in single-seater racing in France, the young native of Normandy decided to ply his trade in the United States in what proved to be a good move! In 2015, he won the USF2000 Winterfest and then the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship Powered by Mazda. He kept on living the American dream in 2016 in the Pro Mazda Championship Presented by Cooper Tires, finishing third overall, opening the way to the Indy Lights series where he competed for the highly regarded Andretti Autosport team in 2017. He returned to Europe in 2018, switching to Endurance GT and Prototype. He very quickly made an impression, claiming third place in the LMP2 class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2020 with Panis Racing, before finishing just shy of the podium in the ELMS the same year, still competing for the former F1 driver’s team. After a year-long interlude with a rival team, Nico returned to Panis Racing determined to add to their success together.

Job Van Uitert
Born on 10 October 1998 in Dongen, the Netherlands.

After starting out in F4, the Dutchman quickly turned to Endurance racing, gradually rising through the ranks of the category. He enjoyed early success, winning the 2018 LMP3 class title in the ELMS and twice finishing as runner-up (2019 & 2020) at the next level up (LMP2). In 2021, he also finished third in the Pro/Am Endurance Trophy of the WEC, and has therefore quickly established himself as a major asset for Panis Racing.

Julien Canal

Born on 15 July 1982 in Le Mans, France.

After initially competing single-seater racing and then in one-make cups in France, Julien’s origins gradually caught up with him as he switched to long-distance motorsport, becoming a specialist in Endurance racing and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The French driver clinched several GT class wins at the world famous 24-hour race at the start of the 2010s.

He now plies his trade in the LMP2 class just as successfully, since he is one of the top amateurs in the category and has become a key member of Panis Racing’s team.
