24h Le Mans: comunicato l’elenco iscritti, ben 62 equipaggi ai nastri di partenza

L’Automobile Club de l’Ouest, titolare dell’impianto e promoter dell’evento, ha divulgato l’entry list provvisoria della 24 Heures Moto Le Mans 2011, prossimo appuntamento del FIM Endurance World Championship in calendario per il 24-25 settembre sul tracciato Bugatti di Le Mans.

Sono ben 62 gli equipaggi regolarmente iscritti che si contenderanno i 55 posti in griglia di partenza. Per i top-team dell’EWC poche, ma significative novità: in casa Suzuki S.E.R.T. torna Freddy Foray (Daisaku Sakai è stato preferito per Suzuka), Honda TT Legends aspettando il rientro di Steve Plater si riaffida a Cameron Donald, Yamaha Austria punta su Loris Baz come 4° pilota. Eccellente ritorno anche in Kawasaki SRC, con l’ex campione del mondo Guillaume Dietrich (vincitore a Le Mans con SERT nel 2007 e 2008) iscritto come “riserva” dell’equipaggio vittorioso lo scorso anno composto da Julien Da Costa, Gregory Leblanc e Olivier Four.

Da segnalare il rientro ai nastri di partenza del team RAC 41 e la presenza di Ornella Ongaro, ex-vice-campionessa francese 125 al via quest’anno della North West 200, con la Suzuki del Normand’Urance/Exo 7. Due le squadre italiane presenti nella classe Superstock: il No Limits #44 sul podio alla 8 ore di Albacete con Alessio Aldrovandi, Victor Casas e Simone Saltarelli, più il MCS Racing Ipone #411 con Michael Savary, Emiliano Bellucci e Jamez Prosemik.

Nella Open oltre a ben due Metiss si segnala la presenza della Aprilia RSV4 del team Le Mans 2 Roues #6 e la MV Agusta F4 #116 del Team Raffin Motos.
