Bruichladdich will race a different car in 2010
A massive day of news today! We have split it into 2 parts and the first part we have ALMS and LMS announcements!
- Daily Sportscar has reported that Bruichladdich Racing will be racing a Zytek in 2010. The team that has run a Radical SR9 for the last few years will be running the car with the help of GAC's Karim Ojjeh. Currently, it is unclear what the future holds for the Bruneau part of Bruichladdich Bruneau from 2009 or GAC Racing.
You may remember that Pierre Bruneau and Marc Rostan raced Pilbeams (amongst other cars) in the past, coming second in the LMP2 Class in 2004.
- Intersport Racing has announced that Brian Wong will join Mitch Pagery in there LMPC car for 2010. Wong previously drove a Porsche GT3 Cup Car in the Patron Challenge.
"This is an amazing opportunity," said Wong. "I see the Challenge class as a perfect format for me to grow my racing career and move up in the American Le Mans Series. It's great to see the Series taking steps that will allow a driver like me to grow his skills. I'll be racing in a World Class series with arguably the best drivers in the World and on the greatest tracks in North America. It's the perfect scenario for a guy like me. I know I can do well here."
"I can't say enough about the Intersport team," Brian continued. "It feels like it will be the perfect fit for me. They have the experience, the history and I know they can get Mitch and me to the front. Plus I really like the sense of family. It's nice to know that the race program is managed under one roof and the lines of communication are short, open and to the point. These guys know how to get it done."
