Sportscar driver Karim Ajlani will launch his 2010 racing programme at the forthcoming Le Mans 24 Hours this June where he is hopeful of securing a prototype seat.

Ajlani, who became the first Syrian to compete at the world famous endurance event last season when driving an OAK Racing Pescarolo in LMP2, also plans to contest a number of European, American and Asian Le Mans Series rounds during the upcoming campaign.

Throughout the winter season Ajlani has maintained his peak physical fitness. However, he is unlikely to contest the opening Le Mans Series race at Paul Ricard, instead preferring the Le Mans 24 Hours for his seasonal debut.

Commenting on his plans, Karim said: “I’m really keen to broaden my horizons this season which is why I’m looking towards the US and Asia during the second part of the year. I’d like to stay in LMP2 as I feel the lessons learned there in 2009 will stand me in good stead for the year ahead.”

Further announcements regarding Karim Ajlani’s 2010 schedule will be made in the coming weeks. Latest News
