Signatech Alpine racing in WEC 2015

unconfirmed reports that Signatech at least or hopefully Signatech Alpine will contest the WEC this year, instead of the ELMS or maybe even both. A much more prestigious series, but will only be racing for LMP2 class wins rather than overall wins as they have become accustomed to in the ELMS series where LMP2 cars were the fastest class.
It will, however, be without British driver Oliver James Webb who has signed for the Japanese SARD team for an interesting, Toyota powered WEC LMP2 project which will involve him being the "gold" driver with up and coming drivers taking the other seats in much the same way as Nissan have brought on young drivers in their GT academy programme (presumably these ones have actually driven real race cars before being taken on mind).

Nelson Panciatici and Paul Loup Chatin have been retained as drivers and will be joined by a third driver TBA.

Now confirmed at the ACO press conference yesterday. Full WEC season for the team and single car at Le mans.

Next Sunday, 12th is the first WEC round at Silverstone, Alpine confirmed!
should be on Motors or Eurosport or even both.

not a great start to the WEC campaign for Signatech Alpine, heavy contact into the barriers ended the race early on, (P-LC was ok though) Traditionally the team don't fare too well at Silverstone yet go onto greater things as the year progresses, lets hope that's the case this year too.

Spa race this weekend (Saturday) lets hope more than one driver gets a chance to drive in this one.
Live on Motors TV at 2pm.
