LOTUS LE MANS EVORA: GTE ENDURO CHALLENGER!


Lotus Motorsport and Jetalliance join forces to take on some of the world’s finest endurance racecars.





Under the direction of Team Manager Jan Kalmar, the newly formed Lotus Jetalliance Team will field two Lotus Evora GTE cars in the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup (ILMC) Series. The two Evora GTE race cars, currently being developed by Lead Designer Nicola Scimeca, will be put through their paces as the team tackles some of the most challenging and competitive endurance races including the six hour race at Spa, Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta and of course the world famous Le Mans 24-hour race.



“Moving into the ILMC is an exciting step for us and it will provide a good opportunity to showcase what can be done with the Evora,” said Claudio Berro, Lotus Director of Motorsport.



 Jetalliance Chief Executive Lukas Lichtner-Hoyer said: “We’ve enjoyed success in recent years at iconic endurance events such as Le Mans and I’m looking forward to repeating if not improving on these results with Lotus.”
