The Martini brand returns to American sportscar racing this weekend as the #8 Starworks Oreca FLM09 Prototype Challenge car adopt the iconic stripes for the 2 hour encounter at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, the TUSCC field split between the Pro (Prototype and GTLM) and Pro-Am (LMPC and GTD) classes for a pair of 2 hour races.
Peter Baron:
“We are tremendously excited to bring back the famous livery to sports car racing in the USA. The fantastic news is that, with Mirco and Renger in the car, we are confident it will return to victory lane!
“This new livery also coincides with the start of the championship drive. The aim is to get through the 24 and 12-hour in the best position possible without losing points from a disaster. We are now confident that our line-up of Mirco and Renger in the 2-driver format races will be challenging for wins every time we go out and of bringing Martini into victory lane.”
