Stephane Sarrazin and Nicolas Minassian will contest the European Le Mans Series, driving Sebastien Loeb Racing’s Oreca 03 LMP2 alongside Nicolas Marroc.

The two former Peugeot works drivers will share the wheel of the LMP2 prototype ran by the team owned by Sebastien Loeb and Dominique Heintz, as the Sebastien Loeb Racing will make its racing debut this season.

Stephane Sarrazin will run in the European Le Mans Series, and will also compete in the World Endurance Championship with Team Starworks’ HPD ARX-03b.

Sarrazin just captured victory in the LMP2 category at the 12 Hours of Sebring with team Starworks. That will be a busy year for Sarrazin, who will also run selected rounds of the French rally championship in a Peugeot 307 WRC.

The Sebastien Loeb Racing will also enter four Porsche 911s in the French Porsche Carrera Cup, including a car for 2010 Indy Lights champion Jean-Karl Vernay.
