Sir Chris Hoy enters this years 24 Hours of Le Mans in LMP2 Class

Sir Chris Hoy will make his debut in this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans driving a LMP2 car, it was announced last Thursday (31/3/15).



The six-time Olympic gold medallist who have been racing in the British GT Championship and European Le Mans Series in recent seasons, which includes winning the LMP3 title alongside Charlie Robertson in European Le Mans Series last year.



Will step up to LMP2 class with the Algarve Pro Racing team for the first two rounds of the ELMS series and this years Le Mans race in mid-June, in a Nissan-powered Ligier JSP2 alongside Michael Munemann and Andrea Pizzitola for those races.

All I can say its a brand new challenge ahead for the six-time Olympic gold medallist.
