D-2 for the Asian Le Mans Series
ELMS - 30/10/2009
At Okayama, everything is ready for the first Asian Le Mans Series race.
The competitors have all arrived safely and are getting ready to battle on the 3,703 kilometres of the circuit.
Yesterday, the 23 entered cars participated in the qualifying test sessions with both sunshine and a mild temperature (22°C). In the queen category, the surprise came … from a Minister! Indeed, Drayson Racing Team's Lola Coupe Judd is in the lead thanks to the performance of young Jonny Cocker, Minister Paul Drayson's co-driver. The Sora Racing Pescarolo Judd will start in second position, driven by Christophe Tinseau and Shinji Nakano.
In LMP2, Jacques Nicolet qualified his Pescarolo Mazda in first position of his category whereas in LMGT1 the Japanese team Hitotsuyama Team Nova signs the pole with their Aston Martin DBR9. Last but not least, in GT2 the Aston Martin Vantage of the Hong Kong Racing team, brilliantly driven by Tomas Enge, winner of the 2009 Le Mans Series Driver Title, will start first in this category.
We wish a wonderful race to all the competitors in the Land of the Rising Sun!
