Lone Star Le Mans 2020 - Welcome to the Chevrolet Corvette C8.R

An 8-time class winner at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Corvette Racing is using its first appearance in the WEC’s Season 8 as part of its development programme for the all-new Chevrolet Corvette C8.R.

The No.63 mid-engined Corvette will be in the capable hands of Jan Magnussen and Mike Rockenfeller for the Lone Star Le Mans event. It’s the first of two FIA WEC rounds for the pair ahead of the 1,000 Miles of Sebring. Magnussen, a two-time winner at COTA, while Rockenfeller, who is making his debut at the Texan track, expands on his expectations for the very competitive GTE Pro class.

There will be another video previewing the new contender, and so, you will see and hear more about it.  For those of you who were at, (as I was), or read my race report, from the Rolex 24, you already are familiar with this automobile.
