Stoffel Vandoorne

Stoffel Vandoorne is a Belgian racing driver who competes in the #93 Peugeot 9X8 Hypercar alongside Nick Cassidy and Paul di Resta in the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship. He raced in Formula One with McLaren in 2017 and 2018, then moved to Formula E where he became World Champion with the Mercedes works team in the 2021-22 season, taking the title with consistent points finishes across the season.

Vandoorne joined the Peugeot WEC programme and has continued with the team into 2026 after a deal to move to Genesis fell through. His background spans multiple disciplines, and he remains active in Formula E alongside his WEC commitments.

The Peugeot programme has faced development challenges since its Hypercar debut, but the team made progress during 2025 and 2026 with an updated version of the 9X8. Vandoorne and his #93 crewmates are racing in a season where Peugeot is working to close the gap to the front-running Toyota and Ferrari programs. Le Mans, where the Peugeot project has placed significant emphasis, remains the race Vandoorne and the team are targeting for a breakthrough result.
