Debut in GT for Adrian Fernandez.

 

 

This is not the first 24 Hours of Le Mans for Adrian Fernandez, but this is the first time the Mexican driver will race at the wheel of a GT. Aston Martin driver for several years, Adrian Fernandez is competing in all FIA World Endurance Championship races ​​with Aston Martin Racing. 

Adrian Fernandez, Aston Martin Racing Aston Martin Vantage V8 (LMGTE Pro): "Having Le Mans as part of the World Championship is important but it is also a one off, like the Indy 500 it is the race that everyone wants to win.  The championship is important too but if you do well here you will be well placed at the end of the season.  Le Mans is a worldwide event, a lot of fans travel from all over the world, with many fans for Aston Martin.  We also have a big group coming from America with our sponsor Lowe’s for the first time.  It is also my first race in a GT here, so I feel like a new kid on the block."
