Sébastien Loeb Racing on all fronts

First of all there is the GT Tour, with the Championship FFSA-GT. Cette fin de semaine au Vigeant, Anthony Beltoise et Laurent Pasquali chercheront à reproduire leur performance de 2011, lorsqu’ils avaient remporté la victoire ici-même sur une Porsche 997 GT3-R. « The Val de Vienne is a circuit that suits Porsches well, believes Anthony Beltoise, double reigning French champion, on a 997. In my opinion, the Ferrari will also be threatening: they have been very fast since the start of the season. For our part, our McLaren MP4-12C showed themselves at ease on all the slopes and should find terrain to their liking in Val de Vienne. It remains to be seen what the weather conditions will be...We experienced several races in torrid heat at Vigeant. It?s hard for the mechanics, the tires and the drivers! »

On the team's other McLaren, with Nicolas Marroc, Nicolas Tardif is very enthusiastic before tackling this race: “ I begin this meeting with optimism. In Spa, I felt better in the car, with better sensations. I think I have progressed, I have had more fun and I have gained confidence. This circuit has worked pretty well for me so far and I hope that we can finally get back to our real place, if possible, from qualifying »

This first weekend of July is in any case very busy for the team. He will take on the feat of competing simultaneously in three championships and above all three different countries: in addition to the FFSA-GT in Val de Vienne, the Alsatian team will also be in FIA-GT at Zandvoort and in Porsche Carrera Cup France, exceptionally relocated to Mugello (Italy). To do this, Sébastien Loeb Racing was able to count on the support and assistance of McLaren. The British manufacturer has in fact made two additional MP4-12Cs available to the French structure, in addition to an operating team to enable the team to respond on all fronts.
