Pesca would think he “came back in 2000”

On January 3, the workshops of Henri Pescarolo's team reopened their doors. There is now a lot of work to be done before witnessing the first laps of the 2011 prototype. After a season away from the circuits, the Sarthe team will return to competition. A “new start” that the four-time winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans compares to the beginning of Pescarolo Sport history in 2000.

“Since the dismantling of my old stable, my first pleasure is to have relieved the State of 10 job seekers, jokes the boss of the Pescarolo Team. If we ignore this 1 year hiatus, it was a morning like any other, as if it had never stopped. The complicity and automatisms of the team made it possible to accomplish a considerable amount of work despite the extra work involved in creating a new Team? Everyone finds themselves in a paradoxical situation, it feels like we're back in 2000, but with 10 more years of experience!”
