Belgian Vincent
Vosse will be competing for the first time in a Care Racing
supported Ferrari 550 Maranello when he re-joins Larbre
Compétition for this month's 24 Hours of Le Mans. He will be
partnering Larbre regulars, Patrice Goueslard and Olivier
Dupard in the number 50 GT1-class entry.
Larbre is, of course, the team with which Vosse has already
won a 24 hour event - the 2002 Spa race. The Monaco
resident, 33, who will be entering his 4th Le Mans, has a
wealth of GT endurance experience and last year drove a
Ferrari 575 in selected rounds of the FIA GT Championship.
His best result in 2004 was 2nd at the 24 Hours of Spa
behind a Care Racing supported Ferrari 550.
Goueslard and Dupard are currently in 2nd place in the
standings of the FFSA French GT Series, competing in a
Larbre-run Chrysler Viper. They have, however, good
experience of the Maranello from last year at both Le Mans
and in the FFSA Series.
The most experienced of Larbre Competition's driver line up
for this years Le Mans marathon will be former FFSA GT
Champion Patrice Goueslard, who partnered Vosse at Le Mans
in a Viper in 2002.

They will be hoping to repeat that winning partnership at
the La Sarthe classic, and Goueslard will particularly be
hoping that his 10th participation at Le Mans will be a
memorable one. Dupard, who made his debut at Le Mans last
year with the Larbre-entered Ferrari 550, will be hoping to
improve on his 5th place finish (GTS category) and - like
his team mates - will be aiming for nothing less than a
podium finish.
Team Principal, Jack Leconte, is confident that his driver
line-up has the right mix of experience needed for success.
"I am very pleased to welcome Vincent back to Larbre
Compétition. Le Mans this year will be tougher than ever,
with a very strong GT1 category including four Ferrari
550s. I think we have a very good combination of experience
with the car, the track, the drivers and - most importantly
- the team knows what it takes to finish a twenty four hour
race. I am sure you will see Larbre featuring strongly
throughout."
