It's finally official, Andrea Piccini and Jean-Denis Deletraz, will drive the Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT with The DAMS team in FIA GT Championship.

The car will be delivered to the French team by Reiter Engineering the first week of June. This means that the debut is expected on June 27th in Donington.

Jean Denis Deletraz will be teaming up with Andrea Piccini. They competed together in 2002 with the Ferrari 550 Maranello and in 2003, for half a season, with Lister as well.

This strong and united couple, who had the 2002 title at the tip of their fingers, will once again be part of the FIA GT championship.

Andrea Piccini, “I’m very enthusiastic about this agreement. This will be an introductory season for us: we will have to break the car in and we will have to resolve all of the inevitable problems that will come up with such a “young” car. It will be hard work but exciting. I can’t wait to get on track in Donington and to make our debut with the Lamborghini Murcielago.”

Audi will be supporting the Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT program with all of its technical knowledge and they will be at hand to update the car as fast as possible. The tyres haven't been chosen yet, but Audi's close collaboration with Michelin, leads speculation that the tyres used will be Michelins.
