🇳🇱 Robin Frijns

Robin Frijns is an established professional racing driver competing in endurance and open-wheel championships. He holds an FIA Platinum grade, marking him among the highest tier of sportscar drivers. He drives for BMW M Team WRT in the World Endurance Championship, a single-class international series raced in prototype machinery, and has represented Envision Racing across a decade of Formula E, where he combines long-distance sportscar commitments with single-seater competition at the highest amateur level.[1]

Frijns won the 2011 Formula Renault Eurocup with Josef Kaufmann Racing and the 2012 Formula V8 3.5 championship with Fortec Motorsports before progressing through Formula 2 and into open-wheel racing. He spent three seasons in DTM from 2018 to 2020 with Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline, a team he raced regularly alongside established professional Nico Müller, finishing with three wins and eighteen podiums across forty-seven starts. His most significant championship came in 2021 when he won the WEC with Team WRT, a victory achieved across a full campaign in prototype racing. Since then he has remained a front-line WEC driver, accumulating seven wins and thirteen podiums across thirty-nine starts in the series. His Formula E tenure from 2015 to 2025 yielded two wins and sixteen podiums from ninety-nine entries, the longest stretch of any single championship in his record. In 2026 he leads the WEC championship standings after five rounds, with one win and two podiums so far.[2]

Frijns races regularly against established professionals of the highest grade, including multiple championship-winners. He has been closely matched with Nico Müller and Sébastien Buemi, a five-time WEC champion and 2016 Formula E champion, across their shared series. He has finished ahead of Alex Palou, a four-time IndyCar champion, on three separate occasions, and once ahead of Max Verstappen during their meeting in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie.
