🇫🇷 Yannick Dalmas

Yannick Dalmas is a retired established professional who raced single-seaters and endurance cars across eight seasons from 1986 to 1998. He spent most of his career in Formula 1, where he drove for Larrousse across 24 starts between 1987 and 1994, and contested the FIA GT Championship in shared-car racing for Porsche AG in 1997 and 1998. Earlier, he raced in International Formula 3000, where he took two wins from 11 starts.[1]

His record across open-wheel and sportscar racing produced 11 podiums from 57 starts, with victories confined to Formula 3000. In the FIA GT Championship, he finished on the podium nine times across 19 starts, indicating consistent performances in endurance racing where his co-drivers' pace also factored into results. His Formula 1 career, though extended across eight seasons, yielded no wins and no podium finishes; he finished 20th in the 1994 championship standings in his final season of racing. He faced strong opposition in both disciplines; he beat the three-time Formula 1 champion Nelson Piquet once and the WEC LMP1 champion Mark Webber twice, though he typically finished behind the established professional Pierluigi Martini and usually placed behind Alessandro Nannini in their shared races.[2]
