ARC Bratislava Name FIA WEC Driver Line-up

ARC Bratislava have confirmed their FIA WEC driver line-up in the team’s LMP2 Pro-Am class Ligier JS P217

Team owner Miro Konôpka will contest all six rounds of the 2021 , the 59-year-old Slovakian will start his fifth 24 Hours of Le Mans race later this year.

Oli Webb will share driving duties with Konôpka in 2021. However, with Webb unable to make Spa due to other race commitments in the UK he will be replaced by fellow Englishman Darren Burke for the WEC season-opener.

Burke has been competing with ARC Bratislava since 2017, in particular in the Asian Le Mans Series where Darren raced both LMP3 and LMP2 machinery with no little success.

Tom Jackson will also join the team for Spa-Francorchamps. The 24-year-old is an experienced British GT driver and last year finished second in the GB Porsche Sprint Challenge.
