Team PEUGEOT TotalEnergies – FIA WEC

Paul di Resta
Born on 16 April 1986 in Uphall, Scotland

Cousin of the Franchitti brothers and son of a former racing driver, Paul’s childhood was steeped in motor racing. After winning prestigious championships such as the F3 Euro Series (2006) and the DTM (2010), the Scot competed on behalf of Force India in the F1 World Championship for three seasons, before returning to DTM. He has gradually developed into an Endurance racing driver, making his début appearance at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2018. Two years later, he finished first in the LMP2 class, ending the season as runner-up in the FIA LMP2 Endurance Trophy, before joining Team Peugeot TotalEnergies in 2022.

Mikkel Jensen
Born on 31 December 1994 in Aarhus, Denmark

After competing in karting, single-seater and GT racing, Mikkel switched to Endurance racing and prototypes. At 30 years old, the Dane has already racked up an impressive competitive record in the category, in the European Le Mans Series (LMP3 class and then LMP2), in the North American series IMSA (LMP2 champion in 2021, winner in the LMP2 class at the 24H of Daytona in 2022) and the Asian Le Mans Series. He joined Team Peugeot TotalEnergies at the very beginning of the FIA WEC programme and his race performances have gone from strength to strength.

Jean-Eric Vergne
Born on 25 April 1990 in Pontoise, France

“JEV” is Formula E’s sole two-time champion (2017-2018 season and 2018-2019 season). After spending several years in Formula 1 (58 Grand Prix starts), the Frenchman took part in his first E-Prix at Punta Del Este (Uruguay) in December 2014. Since then, he has established himself as one of the series’ genuine specialists but he has nonetheless made substantial progress in Endurance within the LMP2 class, so much so that he is now an official driver for the Peugeot Sport TotalEnergies team.

Loïc Duval
Born on 12 June 1982 in Chartres, France

After making a fine start to his single-seater racing career in Great Britain, Loïc Duval enjoyed real success when he moved to Japan, where he won both the Formula Nippon (now known as the Super Formula) and Super GT titles. Since then, he has established himself as one of Endurance racing’s true specialists, winning the FIA World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2013, and the 12 Hours of Sebring on two separate occasions (2011 and 2021). A fast, reliable driver, Loïc has been the backbone of the team since Peugeot returned to Endurance.

Stoffel Vandoorne
Born on 26 March 1992 in Courtrai, Belgium.

Belgian driver Stoffel Vandoorne hooked up with Team Peugeot TotalEnergies as newly-crowned Formula E world champion. After kicking off his racing career in karting, he moved successfully up the ranks of the single-seater pyramid: F4 Eurocup 1.6 champion in 2010, Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 champion in 2012, runner-up in the 2013 Formula Renault 3.5 and GP2 champion in 2015. He moved to Formula 1 in 2016, contesting 41 Grand Prix. He then made a successful switch to Endurance racing and Formula E. After stepping in to replace Nico Müller at the 6 Hours of Fuji in 2023, he was then made a permanent member of Team Peugeot TotalEnergies.

Malthe Jakobsen
Born on 20 October 2003 in Sennels, Denmark.

A Peugeot Junior driver, the talented young Dane joins Team Peugeot TotalEnergies this year, where he will be able to draw on the experience of Loïc and Stoffel in the No. 94 car. Malthe opted for Endurance racing at an early age, driving LMP3 and LMP2 prototypes in the European Le Mans Series (LMP3 class winner in 2022), Le Mans Cup and Asian Le Mans Series (two-time LMP2 class winner), and has also competed in the IMSA since 2020. Spotted by Peugeot, he was invited to take part in the Bahrain Rookie Test in 2023 and 2024 in the PEUGEOT 9X8. It is therefore no surprise that he was made a permanent member of the team this year, taking over from Nico Müller.
