Further to the announcement of the second Ford GT of Matech Competition for the legendary race at Le Mans in June, the race at Spa for the 1000Km Le Mans Series proved a very successful test. The podium of the Le Mans Series GT1 category was 100 % Matech Ford GT1s !

Of the 6 drivers in the Spa 1000Km, 4 will drive the Matech Ford GT1 cars in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

In car n°60, Thomas Mutsch and Romain Grosjean will be joined by Jonathan Hirschi, who as well as racing for the team in Spa has already driven for the Swiss team during the FIA GT 2009 Championship.

The second Matech GT Matech remains as originally planned : a 100% female Swiss team – this has never been seen at Le Mans before ! Cyndie Allemann, Rahel Frey and Natacha Gachnang will be sharing the driving duties of car n°61.

The Marc VDS Racing team will also take the start with one Matech built Ford GT. On June 12th and 13th, 3 Matech Ford GT will race together with 52 other prototypes and GT cars.
