David Brabham will be the the third ACEMCO Saleen driver alongside Terry Borchellor and Johnny Mowlem at Sebring
I think Ian McKellar will step up from ASCAR into the NASCAR Busch Series this year, but I might be wrong. |

Boris de Richebourg was one of JMB boys last season, he hopes to stay in the team for 2004.
Eric van de Poele is busy, he's working in Formula X project. Luca Riccitelli was very active in Italian GT championship 2003. Christophe Bouchut is Labre's first driver. ...these guys haven't disappeared. |

Wasn't it Kevin McGarritty who broke some bones in his feet last year at Sebring?

As far as the SA boys go, George Fouche is back in South Africa, semi retired but still does some local invitational drives.
Werner Lupberger is still in Europe and will be driving a factory Ferrari soon. Gary Formato is back in SA and will be competing here, what class I don't know. There is talk about a few SA drivers competing at Le Mans this year, Lupberger, Formato and some names you haven't heard before. I'm not sure about the facts of this info, just going on rumours I heard lately... Pierre. |

If anybody finds out where Bruno Lambert is, would you let me know? Bruno Lambert owes me a hat.

One driver who never falters to amaze me is Didier Cottaz . When he is contracted to race for Courage , you will never see another driver throw his little beast into Tetre Rouge like he does . I want him back . What makes him so spectacular is the fact that for the past few years he has only driven LeMans ..... Where is my little Frenchman ???

Boris de Richenbourg is also connected to Paul Belmondo World Series by Nissan program.
Whatever happened to Mr Julian Bailey? |

And what of Yannick Dalmas? Incredible that a four-time Le Mans winner isn't employed.

Sorry to be dull, but can we have more on Yannick Dalmas? I'm intrigued.

Where is Perry McCarthy too? The last time I saw him was at Le Mans 2003 with Audi UK colours.

He was quoted as saying at the Autosport show that he had a top chance of going for a LeMans win this year ..... unless they need navigators in an Audi ..... somebody said that as a precaution Audi Sport UK will have 2 drivers per car at any given time . 1 to do the driving and 1 to monitor the fuel guage !!!
