Corvette Racing Sweeps All Three ALMS Season Championships

Corvette Racing capped Corvette's 50th anniversary in international road racing by sweeping the American Le Mans Series manufacturers, drivers and team championships in the season finale at Laguna Seca.


A runner-up finish by Oliver Gavin and Olivier Beretta in the No. 4 Compuware Corvette C6.R wrapped up Chevrolet's sixth consecutive manufacturers' title and gave the pair their second straight driver’s championship.

The four-hour race was hard fought from the green flag as all four GT1 contenders finished within one lap of each other. Corvette Racing program manager Doug Fehan agreed: "As I said before it started, it was going to come down to who made the fewest mistakes and who had the best strategy. We planned our pit strategy to set up for a long final run. It worked to our benefit, and securing second and third was what we needed to clinch the manufacturers’ championship."

The 2007 American Le Mans Series will begin with the season-opening Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring in Sebring, Fla., on Saturday, March 17, 2007. The 12-hour endurance race will be televised live on SPEED.
