Doriane Pin transforma sonho na Fórmula 1 em objetivo após teste com a Mercedes

Doriane Pin, campeã da F1 Academy em 2025, completou um teste com a Mercedes em abril de 2026 e agora vê uma vaga na Fórmula 1 como um objetivo concreto, e não mais como um sonho distante.

A piloto francesa de 22 anos, que se juntou ao Mercedes Junior Team em 2024, pilotou o Mercedes W12 de 2021 durante a sessão. Ela se tornou a primeira campeã da F1 Academy a testar um carro de F1 e a primeira mulher a testar uma máquina da Mercedes na categoria. Pin descreveu a experiência de forma positiva e expressou a esperança de que isso leve a novas oportunidades na série, incluindo uma possível participação em um treino livre (FP1).
