Tim Sugden will again be driving a Ferrari in the Le Mans 24-hour race on June 11 and 12.

The Bradford driver is only racing in selected events this year as he concentrates on his motor sport management business but he finished second in the Daytona 24-hour race in the USA in January and will be keen to improve on his best Le Mans finish of fourth in the GT classes in 1998.

The former British GT champion, Porsche Carrera Cup champion and World Porsche Cup winner said: β€œLe Mans is the race all drivers want to take part in. The atmosphere of the whole week is fantastic and with over 100,000 British enthusiasts making the trip to France, it is almost like racing in the UK.”

In the past Sugden has driven McLaren, Aston Martin, TVR, Porsche and three different Ferrari cars in the event.
