Nine months, three continents, five countries, twelve races. Drayson Racing has been present in all the major endurance events of the 2010 season: 24 Hours of Le Mans, Le Mans Series, ALMS and the entire ILMC. “"I am delighted to be bringing our green technology racing programme to the first ever Le Mans series race in China”, said Paul Drayson, “it is the world's largest car market and grew 50% over the past year.". Fast and reliable team mate Jonny Cocker has already raced at Zhuhai in Porsche Carrera Cup Asia. He will be an important asset to the former government minister turned race driver. The only private team in LM P1, Drayson Racing is placed perfectly against Peugeot and Audi, passing the chequered flag in the first two rounds at Silverstone and then ILMC Petit Le Mans. Now the British team in position to achieve its primary objective in Zhuhai: victory in the Michelin Green X Challenge, which rewards the car with the best compromise between performance and fuel consumption.
The 1000 km from Zhuhai will be held from 5th to 7th of November.
