PORSCHE RS SPYDER TO COMPETE IN EUROPE
Dutch team to race Porsche at Le Mans
Team principal Frans VerschuurA Dutch team will become the first customer entrant of a Porsche RS Spyder in Europe. The Penske-run works cars have proved very successful in the ALMS series in the US over the past couple of seasons, but this announcement will see Porsche returning once again to the sharp end of the grid at le Mans.
VM Motorsport by Equipe Verschuur will contest the full 2008 Le Mans series as well as the famous 24 hour race.
Team principal Frans Verschuur says about the Porsche project: It is a logical next step in the development of our team. In the past few years, the Le Mans Series with its 1000-kilometre races at famous race tracks has developed itself to a professional race category and is a very attractive playing field. Additionally, we plan to enter the Le Mans 24 Hours, which is of course a major challenge for any team.
The near-500bhp LMP2 car will be built at Weissach this autumn while drivers for the team are yet to be decided.
