Behind the scenes

• Academy Series: the first half of the championship is complete. Kyalami in sprint on 2 October, then Laguna Seca on the 16th — the first endurance round, featuring one hour of racing, a mandatory pit stop and points multiplied by 1.5.
• Le Journal: every team race has its race report, and two new Driver's Notes are online — one Academy round analysed lap by lap, and one night of endurance at Le Mans seen from the inside, in five languages.
• Studio: every post on our social channels now also exists as video, on TikTok and as YouTube Shorts. The Academy page on the site has been entirely redesigned.
• JOBARD Race Engineer: our digital pit wall prepared for the 24-hour race, with a balanced stint plan, fuel and weather data on the race sheet, editable stints during the race and a phone view. The chosen setup is sent to the crew on Discord in one click, and Automobilista 2 joins the supported simulators.
• Community: Florian Gauthier made his first start with the team at Le Mans. Applications to join Team JOBARD Racing remain open on a rolling basis.

Looking ahead to November

• Friday 6 November, 20:30: the Academy Series resumes at the Red Bull Ring, live on Twitch.
• 13–15 November: the 8 Hours of Bahrain, on Le Mans Ultimate.
• Friday 20 November, 20:30: the Academy Series at the Circuit of the Americas.

Foundations laid. Course held.
