Corvette Racing's championship driver lineup returns to Sebring intact. The No. 3 Compuware Corvette that scored three consecutive Sebring victories in 2002-04 will be driven by Ron Fellows, Johnny O'Connell and Max Papis. The No. 4 Compuware Corvette will be driven by the same trio that posted back-to-back wins in Le Mans and Petit Le Mans: Oliver Gavin, Olivier Beretta and Jan Magnussen. "We'll play the hand we're dealt," added Steve Wesoloski, GM road racing group manager. "It will be a tough challenge, but we've got the team, the drivers and the level of preparation that can put a Corvette in the winner's circle in Sebring. The performance adjustments will make everyone on the team push harder in every area, knowing that our backs are against the wall. No one at Corvette Racing likes to finish second." The Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring is scheduled to start at 10:30 a.m. EST on Saturday, March 18 at Sebring International Raceway in Sebring, Fla. The race will be televised live on SPEED Channel from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., from 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., and from 7:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. For the complete release visit: www.corvetteracing.com Help Us Give Away 100 New Generation Memberships
