Petit Le Mans will be my first race in the U.S.A. Everybody says that racing in America is very different from what we know in Europe, so I can’t wait to see that ! I’m happy to be sharing the wheel of the Lola-Rebellion #12 with Nico and Neel, my team mates at Rebellion Racing. Neel Jani : «I always like to go racing in the US. I raced for a year in Champ Car, that’s why I know very well and appreciate American motorsport. I have never been to Road Atlanta though. I heard lots of good things about the circuit. The track seems to be my kind of track. I enjoyed the ambiance in Sebring last March but everybody said to me that the atmosphere at Road Atlanta races is really unique.» Nicolas Prost : «The race at Sebring was a very good experience for us. I am really happy to be going to Petit Le Mans. In this way, Neel and I will have raced in both the American rounds of the ILMC. We have made strong improvments during the season so we should be more competitive than we were at Sebring. Petit Le Mans will be a good place to compare the pace of our Lola-Toyota with the best competitors of the ALMS, the Lola-Aston Martin from Cytosport and Lola-Mazda from Dyson racing.»
