Henri Pescarolo regains his team’s assets thanks to two very generous individuals...
The Pescarolo name has been synonymous to Le Mans for the better part of the last 50 years. And after not taking part in this year’s twice-around-the-clock classic, Henri Pescarolo is set to return as a team owner in 2011, thanks to the help of two very generous individuals.
Pescarolo Sport, which was purchased by Sora Composites in late 2008, had gone into receivership after team principal Jean Py was unable to put a program together around this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The team’s assets were auctioned off today at its base in the Le Mans Technoparc. But to the surprise of many, two of the sport’s loyalists banded together to help keep Pescarolo Sport alive.
