Ove sezone Evropsko prvenstvo serije Le Man donosi nam iznenađenja, kako od strane timova i vozača, tako i od mašina.
Evropska Le Mans serija jedno je od najkonkurentnijih prvenstava u izdržljivosti na svijetu. Sa predsezonskim testovima već 1. i 2. aprila, na stazi Paul Ricard, ceo tim se priprema za inauguraciono kolo šampionata, na stazi Silverstone, 18. i 19. aprila. Estoril Circuit ima čast da zatvori prvenstvo, 18. i 19. oktobra.
Velika novost u ovom izdanju Evropske serije Le Mans je prisustvo portugalskog vozača Filipea Albuquerquea za komandama Audija R18 e-tron, iz Audi Sport Team Joest tima. Takođe obratite pažnju na prisustvo Sebastiena Loeba u klasi LMP2, sa Sebastien Loeb Racing Oreca timom.
Pojaviće se i Nissan ZEOD RC, iako je registrovan u rezervacijama.
U klasi LMP2, Nissan/Nismo mehaničari, sa atmosferskim blokom VK45DE, su izbor većine timova. Sa samo 144 kg, ovaj motor nam daje 460 konjskih snaga i 570 Nm maksimalnog obrtnog momenta. Prepoznat po svojoj pouzdanosti, ovaj motor je izabran za pogon skoro svih automobila klase LMP2.
Ligier također obilježava svoj povratak, uz podršku TDS Racing tima. U GT klasama bit će zanimljiva borba između modela Ferrari 458 Italia, Corvette C7, Aston Martin Vantage V8 i na kraju uvijek konkurentnog Porschea 911 RSR.
Ostavljamo vam zvaničnu listu prijava za evropsku seriju Le Mans.
