FOTO'S: Ford toont GT-auto en de LINE-UP voor het FIA WEC en 24 uur van Le Mans

Door Wim Boekel6 januari 2016 · 07:07 uur1 min lezen

Dit jaar maakt Ford haar debuut in het FIA World Endurance Championship. Het Amerikaanse merk zet volgend jaar in de LMGTE-Pro de Ford GT in en keert daarmee terug naar het Circuit de la Sarthe voor de befaamde 24 uur van Le Mans. Daar moet de auto laten zien net zo succesvol te zijn als haar voorganger de Ford GT40 in de jaren 60. Deze brute bolide versloeg de Ferrari’s die tot dan toe oppermachtig waren op het Franse circuit. Ford Chip Ganassi Racing maakte gisteren bekend dat Marino Franchitti, Stefan Mücke, Olivier Pla en Andy Priaulx voor het merk gaan racen in het FIA WEC.
