Ok did some digging. Maybe you can trigger race mode via CAN, you just need to find what to send. Here is the explanation for the new switch:
The dna system selector H155 receives power - pin 4 - from the line protected by fuse F21 of boot junction box B045; pin 2 is earthed.Selector H155 is then connected, via CAN - from pins 1 and 3 - to the other nodes, in particular the steering control unit M086, the ABS-VDC control unit M050, and the engine control unit M010. It is also connected to the instrument panel E050 to which it sends the signals to display the mode engaged and system failure.The Body Computer M001 - connector A - receives direct battery power via the line protected by maxi fuse F72 of the maxi fuse box on the battery B099. The Body Computer M001 receives an ignition-controlled power supply (INT) on pin 12 of connector H from the signal from the radio frequency module M204. Pins 1 and 11 of connector G of M001 provide the Body Computer with a reference earth.

Here is the description for cars before 2019:
The DNA system selector H155 receives power supply - pin 1 - from the ignition-operated line (INT) protected by fuse F51 of Body Computer M001; pin 6 is earthed.The selector H155 sends an analogue signal to the Body Computer M001 according to the selected mode, from pin 5 of H155 to pin 21 of connector H on M001; the signal for the corresponding LED is sent from pin 9 of H155 to pin 6 of connector H on M001.It also sends the analogue signal for the "race" function to pin 3 of connector H on M001.The Body Computer M001 - connector A - receives direct battery power via the line protected by maxi fuse F72 of the maxi fuse box on the battery B099. The Body Computer M001 receives an ignition-controlled power supply (INT) on pin 12 of connector H from the signal from the radio frequency module M204. Pins 1 and 11 of connector G of M001 provide the Body Computer with a reference earth.The Body Computer M001 is connected, via the CAN, to the other nodes, in particular the steering control unit M086, the ABS-VDC control unit M050 and the engine management control unit M010. It is also connected to the instrument panel E050 to which it sends the signals to display the mode engaged and system failure.

So I only need to send proper analog signal to pin 3 of connector H on the Body Computer, but I don't know the proper resistance. Can you measure the pins of the switch you've got and that is not the one for you?
