Lotus Praga LMP2 is pleased to announce its driver line-up for the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The legendary race at the Sarthe will celebrate its 90th anniversary this year and is the highlight on the 2013 FIA World Endurance Championship calendar.

After its first participation last year, Lotus is fielding two of the new Lotus Praga T128 LMP2 cars. Kevin Weeda, James Rossiter and Christophe Bouchut will be at the wheel of #31. For Weeda it will be the first time to race at the endurance classic. Rossiter was already contesting in 2011, whereas Bouchut counts among the endurance experts and will celebrate his 20th participation at Le Mans this year. The Frenchman even won the 24 Hours race in 1993.

Thomas Holzer, Dominik Kraihamer and Jan Charouz will compete in the sister car #32. All of them already gained experience at the Circuit des 24 Heures at their participations in the previous years.
