BAR1 Motorsports has confirmed re-signing Canadian Kyle Marcelli for the 2013 American Le Mans Season.

"Re-signing Kyle Marcelli for 2013 was really and easy decision for us to make," team owner Brian Alder said.

"He was consistently fast in 2012."

The 21-year-old has already amassed three wins in the course of his ALMS career, in the LMPC category, and six pole positions, 13 podiums and five lap records.

Co-driving the Chevrolet-powered No. 8 ORECA FLM09 with Marcelli will be fellow Canadian Chris Cumming, the former GTC driver.

Former F1 driver Stefan Johansson has been signed as well to help the two on longer races.
