LMS: Team Modena announce Mansell for 2009

1-16-2009

by Emmanuel Rolland

From Team Modena press release

Team Modena announced that Leo Mansell, son of 1992 Formula One World Champion Nigel Mansell, will be one of the drivers in the team's LM GT2 Ferrari 430GT for the 2009 Le Mans Series - and the Le Mans 24-Hour race itself.

Leo will share the new car with team regular Antonio Garcia, one of the world's leading GT drivers, with Nigel himself lending his experience from a lengthy and successful race career to the team's cause.

Twenty-four year old Leo has raced in single-seaters, notably the highly competitive British Formula 3 Championship, and the Atlantic Championship in the U.S. in 2007 and 2008.

Antonio has raced with Team Modena since November 2005, and in that time has twice completed Le Mans and recorded ten LMS podium finishes in the team's GT1 Aston Martin.
