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 has now been handed a works drive 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.

Aware of both his experience and speed, Peugeot Sport has recruited him to be one of the team’s spearheads on its return to Endurance racing.

Nico Müller

The latest to join the Peugeot TotalEnergies team, Swiss driver Nico Müller represents a significant addition to the French manufacturer’s factory outfit, backed by the major energy group. The 30 year-old has acquired experience in a variety of disciplines, including karting, single-seater racing, DTM, GT, Formula E and Endurance, all with considerable success. Having started out in karting, like many drivers, he followed a fairly conventional career progression into single-seater racing, winning the 2009 Formula Renault 2.0 Switzerland, before showcasing his skills in GP3 a year later (3rd) and then in Formula Renault 3.5 in 2013, the highlight being a race win at Monaco.

He was subsequently recruited by a German manufacturer, for which he competed in GT (winning the Nürburgring 24 Hours in 2015) and DTM, the incredibly-competitive German touring car championship, finishing as runner-up on two occasions (2019 & 2020).

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

Peugeot TotalEnergies’ latest recruit, Belgian driver Stoffel Vandoorne has joined the French team on the back of his maiden Formula E World Championship. His recruitment is clearly something of a coup, bringing genuine pedigree to the team. Like many before him, he started out in karting, before graduating – rather successfully – to single-seater classes. F4 Eurocup 1.6 Champion in 2010, he then won the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 in 2012 before showcasing his skills in Formula Renault 3.5 (runner-up in 2013) and winning the GP2 title in 2015.

Winning F1’s feeder category opened the doors to the top-tier class in 2016 with McLaren F1 Team. He stayed with the British outfit until the end of 2018, contesting 41 Grand Prix, but the car’s lack of performance prevented him from fully expressing his talent. He revitalised his career by switching to Endurance racing and to Formula E. Runner-up to Nyck De Vries in 2019-2020, he succeeded his former team-mate in the 2021-2022 season, combining impressive speed with solidity and consistency throughout the season. Whilst he replaced Nico Müller, who was injured, in the 6 Hours of Fuji in 2023, he is now a permanent driver of the team.
