2026 La Carrera Panamericana results
Overview
Hilaire and Laura Damiron, a Franco-Brazilian duo, secured the absolute championship at the 39th edition of the Carrera Panamericana. Driving a 1954 Studebaker Commander nicknamed ‘El Commander’, the pair maintained a consistent lead throughout the seven-day, 4,000-kilometer race that began in Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, and concluded in Zacatecas.
The victory marks the pair’s third title in the event, following previous wins in 2016 and 2023. The Studebaker featured a blue, red, and white livery to honor Hilaire’s French heritage and the 200th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Mexico and France.
The competition was impacted by the withdrawal of seven-time winner Ricardo Cordero, whose vehicle, ‘El Malditillo’, suffered an engine failure. The final podium saw Emilio Velázquez and Javier Marín finish second in a Studebaker Golden Tiger, followed by Jorge Pedrero and Sergio Contreras in third place. The event, which saw vehicles reaching speeds exceeding 250 km/h, concluded with a celebration in front of the Basilica Cathedral in Zacatecas.
