Beitske Visser will join Richard Mille Racing Team’s all-female entry into the 24 Hours of Le Mans, subbing for the injured Katherine Legge.
Legge is still recovering from a crash at Paul Ricard and is unable to compete in the French endurance classic.
Visser, runner-up in the inaugural W Series season, will partner F3 racer Sophia Flörsch and former F2 driver Tatiana Calderon behind the wheel of the Signatech-run #50 ORECA 07-Gibson.
The 25-year-old will be making her first start at Le Mans. Visser has already completed two rounds of the European Le Mans Series with the team.
She finished sixth in the 4 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps alongside Calderon WEC racer Andre Negrao and partnered Flörsch in the Le Castellet 240, finishing eleventh.
