SOFTSWISS have celebrated a major milestone in its collaboration with rising Brazilian race driver Eduardo ‘Dudu’ Barrichello, with the talented motorsport star successfully completing his debut at the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans, a pivotal round in the ongoing 2025 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).
Held over June 15th and 16th at the historic Circuit de la Sarthe in Le Mans, France, the 24-hour endurance race is one of the most prestigious events in global motorsport.
First run in 1923, it forms part of the coveted Triple Crown of Motorsport, alongside the Monaco Grand Prix and the Indianapolis 500. The race challenges every aspect of a driver’s performance, combining speed, consistency and strategic depth – values that reflect the approach SOFTSWISS brings to its own operations in the highly competitive iGaming industry.
At just 23 years old, Eduardo Barrichello added this legendary event to his growing international racing résumé, competing with the Racing Spirit of Léman team in an Aston Martin Vantage AMR GT3 Evo.
Eduardo Barrichello says: “Le Mans is not just another race; it is the kind of challenge you grow up dreaming about. Representing Brazil on this stage is a huge honour, and stepping onto that track for the first time is a defining moment in my career.
“Endurance racing pushes you beyond your limits; physically, mentally and technically. Having SOFTSWISS as a partner for the entire WEC series this year means a lot.”
The collaboration between SOFTSWISS and Eduardo Barrichello builds upon the company’s long-term commitment to performance, innovation, and operational excellence. It extends a relationship with the Barrichello family, which began in 2024 when Rubens Barrichello, Formula 1 legend and Eduardo’s father, was appointed Non-Executive Director in Latin America at SOFTSWISS.
Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS, adds: “In motorsport, milliseconds can define outcomes; in iGaming, it is responsiveness, stability and foresight that define leadership.
At SOFTSWISS, we embrace this mindset; continuously optimising our solutions, anticipating market shifts and pushing the boundaries of technology.
“Like a Le Mans team, we race through every 24 hours with unwavering resilience. Only our race never ends. Our systems are built to deliver flawless performance, every day, hour after hour, without pause.”
SOFTSWISS also welcomed a group of partners and guests to experience the race first-hand. The programme included VIP lounge access, helicopter flights over the circuit, access to exclusive camera-only track zones, paddock entry and hot laps in a real race car.
Guests also enjoyed conversations with Rubens and Eduardo Barrichello, creating a unique opportunity to connect motorsport, technology and partnership in an unforgettable setting.
