|
Lotterer, a German racer who is a double series champion for Lexus in Japanese Super GT 500 competition, will form part of a powerful driver line-up for the two LFA that will be taking part, led by driver/team manager Akira Iida. It will be the fourth time the LFA has competed at the legendary Nordschleife, a circuit that pushes Lexus’ cutting-edge technology to the extremes of mechanical endurance. Gazoo Racing’s technical team is drawn directly from Lexus’ research and development section, and by participating in the event these engineers and technicians are able to hone skills that can be fed directly into new Lexus products. As follow-on from the Nürburgring, racing fans will have their chance to admire the LFA at close quarters when Gazoo Racing brings one of its race cars to this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, from 30 June to 3 July. In 2010 a Gazoo Racing LFA won the SP8 class in the race. This season the team has made strong progress with the car, with two class wins in the VLN endurance races at the Nürburgring and its best finish to date of fifth place outright. The full Gazoo Racing line-up for the 39th Nürburgring 24 Hours is as follows: Takayaki Kinoshita (Japan) |
