Le Mans Series in Barcelona

Very soon, the first, not to be missed, meeting of the Le Mans Series season, the 1000Km of Catalunya, will start.

Yesterday afternoon, Leo Mansell was at the Melcior Colet Museum in Barcelona with the Spanish medias to promote the Le Mans Series race.

Together with Mr Ramon Praderas, Director of the Catalunya Circuit, they presented the Series and its specificities together with the promotion put into action for this event. Mr Praderas emphasized the quality of the drivers of famous names such as Senna, Prost and of course Mansell, names which portend a very exciting season!

After his first steps in Endurance during the official tests at the Paul Ricard, Leo Mansell entrusted that he was impatient to share the wheel of the Modena Team Ferrari F430 GT with Antonio Garcia.
