Walker Racing is pleased to announce that it has completed its driver line up adding two more cars to the stable, as Leo and Greg Mansell will join the team to compete in the 2008 Champ Car Atlantic Championship.
Walker Racing is both flattered and excited to have the Mansell duo, sons of 1993 Champ Car and 1992 Formula 1 champion Nigel Mansell. After spending two years competing in Europe, the Mansells wanted to give American open-wheel racing a try after completing a very successful test in the Walker Racing machines back in October.
The Mansell duo will be joined by teammate, Canadian Kevin Lacroix who will pilot the Uni-Select entry for Walker Racing. The team will be out to reclaim the 2008 Atlantic championship and run at the top of the grid with Greg and Leo Mansell and Kevin Lacroix as they resume testing in January.
Antoine L'Estage and his codriver Alan Ockwell of the Yokohama Canada Rally Team won the 2014 edition of the Rallye Defi by winning every stage of the rally.
