Le Mans Winning Trio Look To Add Spa Crown

Marcel Fässler, André Lotterer and Benoît Tréluyer will race together not only in the FIA WEC together, but will also join forces in an attempt to add a win at the Spa 24 Hours to their two Le Mans victories and the 2012 FIA World Endurance Championship.

It will be the first time that the trio have raced together in an Audi GT3 car as Belgian Audi Club Team WRT, the 2011 winners at Spa, field an R8 LMS ultra for the trio.

Marcel Fässler was the overall winner in the classic Belgian event in 2007 with Phoenix Racing and since 2009 has contested all five races of the R8 LMS at Spa.

2014 will see André Lotterer on the grid with Audi for the third consecutive year (he took third place in 2013).

Benoît Tréluyer will be making his debut in the world’s major GT3 race.

If successful it will be the first time since 1972 that an all-Le Mans winning driver squad has taken the Spa 24 Hours win.
