WEC – Panciatici: Signatech can surprise at Silverstone

Nelson Panciatici prepares to compete in the WEC with his teammates Paul-Loup Chatin and Vincent Capillaire and his team Signatech-Alpine who decided to enter the WEC after winning the last two seasons of theELMS. Despite increased competition in LMP2 and a Alpine A450b aging, the results of the Prologue carried out at Paul-Ricard at the end of March were promising since Panciatici achieved the 3rd time in the category.

“At Castellet, we have worked a lot on tire endurance because in 6 hour races it is imperative not to degrade them with a view to double relays. Without looking too hard for performance, I think we achieved a good time, which is promising compared to the new generation cars. comments Nelson Panciatici.

The first verdict will be given this April 12 to 6 Hours of Silverstone (Great Britain) which will open the new WEC season, despite the absence of Team SARD Morand which was to enter two Morgan Evos. “ I approach this first meeting with full confidence. The competition will be difficult to beat but we are well prepared… I know that?Alpine has the capacity to shine and even if it looks difficult we will think of victory, I can't wait to be at Silverstone! », assures the double ELMS champion.
