Team Ascari's Managing Director, Ian Dawson quoted;<BR> <BR> "I believe the 2002 driver line-up will help Team Ascari build on its successes celebrated in 2001, whilst maintaining consistency and familiarity between each driver and team engineers, We are very pleased with the pace and mental approach of our two new drivers, TJ Bell and Christian Vann whilst both technical packages (Judd and Turbo engines) have proved to be very competitive and reliable". Throughout the winter Team Ascari has been based in Florida testing at both Sebring and Daytona whilst being in constant communication with the R&D centre in Banbury, with the aim of developing a package capable of completing the gruelling Daytona Rolex 24 Hour event, that has seen prototype cars struggle to reach podium positions over the past couple of years.</FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
