Motor Racing and Formula 1 in particular is every auto enthusiast’s dream. I am a massive fan of WRC and have always dreamt of getting behind the wheel of a WRC car ever since I first started following motorsports. Getting in to the top levels of auto racing is a very tedious and long process. Infact, it takes many years for to get anywhere near the top level of professional motorsport.
The Hamiltons and Vettel’s have all been through an arduous process of scrutiny and selection to get to Formula 1, the pinnacle of motor sport racing. GP2 is regarded as the penultimate level of racing before F1. All the racers on the grid today have kickstarted their racing careers young, by Karting.
Getting behind the wheel of a Le Mans race car is a job better left to the experienced lot. Except for Lucas Ordonez, a 25 year old chap from Spain who has got the opportunity to hop in the seat of a Signatech Nissan LMP2 machine at the 12 Hours of Sebring in Florida without prior racing experience that is. How? Well, Mr. Lucky Lucas began competing in Nissan and Playstation’s GT Academy when it first got started back in 2008.
Lucas came out victorious amongst 25,000 other gamers from over the world and Nissan thought, he should given the chance to take his skills from Gran Turismo to a real race track. It was that easy or that difficult! He is preparing for the race for the last 3 years because, the car he will be driving is not your average Nissan but a 200 mph endurance racer. IndianCarsBikes wishes Lucas good luck. Drive safe and very fast, Lucas!
