JRM Racing relishing Le Mans Challenge

Media Travel client JRM Racing has recently announced that it will be putting its stamina to the test in the 2012 FIA World Endurance Championship in the LMP1 class. This series includes the legendary and prestigious Le Mans 24 hour race, an event which JRM Group Executive Director James Rumsey is especially enthused at the prospect of contesting: “Having Le Mans included in the calendar is a significant factor for us. It has always represented the pinnacle of motorsport achievement.”

The Team will be competing in an LMP class Honda with three drivers who are yet to be confirmed. JRM is also looking at entering the FIA GT1 Championship for the third season in a row pending the finalisation of sponsorship, and would be delighted to be involved again having won the championship for drivers in 2011.

Much hard work is anticipated in the build-up to the first event at Sebring in March as the guys at JRM look to get themselves in ship shape for the coming season. Let's hope they can transfer their winning formula to the new format.

The schedule for the series will take place as follows:
