ISMA, the sanctioning body of the American Le Mans Series said on Monday that Corvette Racing's Jan Magnussen and Flying Lizards Porsche driver Jorg Bergmeister were placed on a two-race probation starting with Sebring at the start of the 2010 season. The two drivers were issued probation for their parts in the "avoidable contact" that resulted with Jan Magnussen crashing at the finish line at Laguna Seca. The penalty for any further offenses during the probation period will result in a minimum two-race ban from competition.
The American Le Mans Series held their annual awards banquet in Monterey and it was announced that Corvette Racing's Program Manager Doug Fehan was honored with the "From the Fans" award. The award is Fehan's second straight From the Fans award which is based on input from fans through voting at AmericanLeMans.com.
Although GT1 was unrecognized in the official ALMS season awards release, our friends at BadBoy Vettes remind us that it was Gavin and Beretta who came out on top of the GT1 drivers. To do so, they had to beat the best in class!
