Aston Martin Racing has taken a double podium finish at this weekend’s 6 Hours of Silverston,e as the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) gets underway.
Aston Martin Racing has qualified for the 2015 Le Mans 24-hours race with the #99 and #98 V8 Vantage GTE models. With this year’s participation in world’s toughest race, two things impressed us: the colorful and art-influenced Vantage and the “rookie” Richie Stanaway (NZ), who will race at the famous race for the first time. But the impressive thing, that the “new guy” managed to impress all of us with the fastest lap and putting the #99 on pole.
