Having performed so well in the Le Mans 24 Hour race, Montagny has been snapped up for the American Le Mans series for the remainder of the season.

Now, I’m a bit late with news, and the race this weekend at Lime Rock sees Montagny teaming up with Marco Andretti but it looks like he will have various team mates throughout the season.

The new lineup is somewhat unexpected, as AGR had only just got settled with a team of Christian Fittipaldi and Bryan Herta. But the boss wanted a big change, and thankfully Franck got the benefit of that.

He says:

I know how competitive the American Le Mans Series is and know how challenging this will be, but I believe I am ready for it. I am eager to get started.
