Gulf Racing’s two car ELMS effort in 2014 has morphed into a single car entry in the FIA WEC under the AMR banner for Roald Goethe’s Aston Martin Vantage GTE with Roald’s regular partner in crime Stuart Hall also slated for the WEC effort.
Mike Wainwright’s Porsche 911 RSR meanwhile continues in the WEC with Adam Carroll rejoining the effort, the 2014 duo joined for the season by James Winslow.
Mike Wainwright: “Personally I am very much looking forward to the new season which I believe will bring more opportunities and hopefully success on the track. We have a very well organised team who are desperate to show their true potential, I hope that in 2015 we achieve some of our goals. Racing again at Le Mans and with Porsche would be very special, hopefully that will become a reality’
Team Manager Matt Beers: “We are very pleased to return to the ELMS with Porsche, its genuinely our goal to win the championship this year and we feel we have a strong enough package to do that, in addition we are hoping to also to participate in the 24 hours of Le Mans, bringing the Gulf Racing brand, with Porsche machinery, back to this fantastic spectacle, we are 4th on the reserve list for the event’.
James Winslow: “I’m very happy to be joining Gulf Racing in 2015, every driver wants to be with the best team and that is exactly what has happened here, Gulf Racing is an exciting team with very talented team members, I join two very good co-drivers with Mike & Adam, we are a very strong combination & I’m looking forward to getting the season underway, potentially driving at Le Mans 24 hours in a Gulf Racing Porsche will be special for us all! I thank the team very much, for this opportunity’
