In 2022 Tasmanian racing driver Alex Peroni will race with team G-Drive Racing by APR, an LMP2 team participating in the European Le Mans Series (ELMS). G-Drive Racing by APR will defend its ELMS LMP2 prototype title with reigning champion John Falb, partnering with Australia’s Alex Peroni and James Allen.
Roman Russinov, Manager of G-Drive Racing by APR, said: “I believe the driver lineup is very balanced including John Falb and James Allen, who already have solid experience in endurance racing, and promising driver Alex Peroni who is sure to surprise many in his debut season at the wheel of a prototype.”
Peroni said: “I’m very pleased to be racing with a team that I know will be able to compete at the front, and I thank everyone at G-Drive Racing by APR for giving me this opportunity. I know I have a lot to learn in endurance racing but I’m confident it’s the right environment to give it my best. I’ll be looking to learn as much as possible from my very experienced teammates and to help us achieve the team’s objectives in 2022.”
In addition to ELMS, Alex has the possibility of racing in the 24 Hour of Le Mans but will need to wait to know if the G-Drive Racing by APR Pro-AM entry is accepted by Le Mans race organisers.
“I thank my incredible Tasmanian sponsors and my supporters who have been with me for many years and who have once again shown their confidence in me as I make an important step in my career.”
