French contender Solenn Amrouche is first to be announced as part of Arden Motorsport’s 2026 GB4 line-up.
The 22-year-old daughter of GT champion Lionel Amrouche began karting at the age of 12, following an introduction to the sport by the Iron Dames. She then made the transition to cars at 17, soon becoming a Vice Champion of the Spanish GT Championship’s GPX category alongside her father in 2023, securing multiple class wins and podiums in addition to an outright victory at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo.
She broadened her endurance racing experience in 2024, competing in 24-hour races at Barcelona, where she was a winner in the GTX category, further full-length contests at Portimao and Dubai, while also entering the Ultimate Cup GT Sprint and the Spanish GT categories.
A switch in discipline came last year, when she entered single-seater competition for the first time, driving first generation Formula Regional machinery in the Ultimate Cup across Europe. She impressed with a podium at Aragon, and earned 13 further top-10 finishes in the 18-race schedule. She was classified fifth in the series’ Rookie class, and seventh overall.
Solenn has participated in multiple GB4 test days across the winter with Arden Motorsport, as well as maintaining her appearance in GT racing. The team have high hopes for Solenn, and look to keep up their title of top female contender in GB4 set by Ava Dobson in 2025.
