Le Mans Series - Silverstone - Round 4

The 4th round of the Le Mans Series Championship will be held at Silverstone, on 10 & 11 of Septembre.

For personal reasons, Nicolas De Crem will no more participate to the Le Mans Series Championship, and will be replaced by the young norwegian driver, Thor-Christian Ebbesvik, for who, it will be the first experience with our team. Christian is 27 years old, and has already a very nice experience in racing (Formula Ford, Spanish F3, FLM, LMP2..). He started in Formula Le Mans in 2009, and drove in category LMP2 in 2010.

He will share the wheel with our austrian driver, Dominik Kraihamer.

We look forward to work with him and welcome him in our team.

Christian Ebbesvik  : "I am delighted to be back in LMP2 and driving with Boutsen Energy Racing. I know they are a good team and I am sure we can have some great results together sharing the Oreca-Nissan with Dominik Kraihamer".

Olivier Lainé (Team Manager) : "We are disappointed for Nicolas, as we have not yet obtained a victory in the LMP2 class.. But now we concentrate on the rest of the season and we will do everything to achieve our objective, we still have 2 races to go, and 2 very good drivers".

Dominik Kraihamer : "I am sad that Nicolas De Crem can't continue to drive in our team. He is a very nice driver, with a lot of talent. In the same time, I am happy to drive with Thor-Christian, who has experience.  I hope he will help and share his experience .. I am sure we will realize good races at Silverstone and Estoril".
