FIA WEC Sebring: Friday Afternoon Paddock Notes
The Vector Sport livery application is well underway in the team’s garage, but seems just a little different to the livery the team released earlier this week!
Seen later en route to a photocall the car’s prominent branding for the team’s forthcoming campaign with Isotta Fraschini is immediately obvious.
Northwest AMR Shootout
2023 Asian Le Mans Series GT Champion Thomas Merrill will test the #98 Northwest AMR Aston Martin on Sunday after Axcil Jeffries tries out the car on Saturday ahead of a decision from the team on a Silver-ranked driver for the season.
Iron Lynx Porsche Praise
Iron Lynx Driver and co-owner Claudio Schiavoni was effusive in his praise for the Porsche 911 RSR ahead of the start of the WEC season that sees the team link with Proton Competition to campaign a pair of cars (plus another in the ELMS).
“The car is amazing to drive. I am so happy that I have a chance to race this car this year before the end of the GTE class.” It’s a car that Claudio has long since admired and not just for its looks and its handling!
“When the car was new (in 2017) I just loved the way it sounded. I was sometimes behind one of them on track and wouldn’t want to pass because it sounded so amazing!”
Track Action Tomorrow (and Sunday)
The WEC Prologue test gets underway tomorrow with the first of four track sessions over two days featuring a total of 12 hours and 30 minutes of track action .
