This week, Graff Racing is in Portimao to close the Le Mans Cup season. The French team, managed by Pascal Rauturier, will run two Ligier JS 320s in Portugal with the ambition of doing as well as in the previous meeting at Spa-Francorchamps. David Droux and Luis Sanjuan are still on a winning streak in the Belgian Ardennes. 

 

"This victory has put some joy in our hearts", Pascal Rauturier told Endurance-Info. "It's not a simple year, as you can see in LMP2. Our drivers didn't find their way around the season. The programme was consistent in the Asian Le Mans Series but harder in the European Le Mans Series."

The last appearance of the Oreca 07 shared by Eric Trouillet, Sébastien Page and David Droux was at the ELMS meeting in Monza last July. The same trio took part in the Asian Le Mans Series in the LMP2. 

 

Graff will be back in the Asian series next winter with two Ligier JS P320s and the aim of seeking a ticket to the 2023 Le Mans 24 Hours. If a good opportunity arises, the Oreca 07 is also ready to race in the Asian Le Mans Series. 

 

The next step will be a new entry in the Le Mans Cup, not forgetting a return to the ELMS in LMP3.
