This season, Racing Experience will enter the European Le Mans Series for the first time with the n°12 Duqueine M30-D08.
In total, the field will consist of forty-three cars. The Duqueine D08 of Racing Experience with the number 12 will join the adventure in the LMP3 class where it will have to fight with sixteen other competitors. The championship will feature six race events throughout Europe. The team knows most of the circuits from their Michelin Le Mans Cup campaigns in 2019 and 2020, apart from the Red Bull Ring in Austria.
The final driver line-up will be confirmed very soon, but for the first time since 2017, brothers David and Gary Hauser, together with a third driver, will share again the same car during all the events of this season.
David Hauser, Racing Experience Managing Director and Driver: “What a start of the year this is! I feel extremely grateful for the opportunity to work full-time for Racing Experience. It's a great challenge for me and there will be an incredible workload, but I will give it everything I have! From the driver perspective, participating in the ELMS championship is a dream come true. The level of competition is extremely high and the races will now last four hours instead of two [like in the Michelin Le Mans Cup]. The strategy will play a crucial role. I cannot wait to get back behind the wheel.”
Gary Hauser, Racing Experience Driver:“I am very happy to drive this season in the ELMS championship and to share the car with my brother. I am looking forward to some great driving action! We definitely have our say. To drive together with the GTE cars, but also with the faster LMP2 cars will be a challenge, but I am generally very confident for the season.”
The Racing Experience team will now focus on some winter tests before the official season opener at the famous Barcelona circuit in Spain. Two official testdays are scheduled at the beginning of the race week. The race itself will then take place on Sunday, 18th April.
