Former Formula 1 driver Nick Heidfeld will join the Rebellion Racing team to compete in the FIA World Endurance Championship and the Le Mans 24 Hours.

The Swiss team said Heidfeld will race at the Sebring 12 Hours, the Spa 6 Hours and the legendary Le Mans race in one of its Lola-Toyota LMP1 cars.

He will share the car with Neel Jani and Nicolas Prost.

Heidfeld joins Rebellion after being left without a Formula 1 drive when he was replaced by Bruno Senna at the Renault team last year.

The German had competed in Le Mans in 1999.

"I am really looking forward to this new challenge and I am especially excited that the first race in Sebring, being a new circuit for me, is only a few weeks away," said Heidfeld.

"Since I did Le Mans in 1999 I always knew that I wanted to come back to endurance racing.

"I am very happy to join Rebellion Racing and hope I can help building up on their already impressive achievements which include winning the Team and Manufacturer championship in the Le Mans Series and finishing just behind the Peugeot and Audi works teams in the Intercontinental Le Mans cup."

Team boss Bart Hayden added: "We had a number of options for high profile drivers joining our Team for the longer distance race events such as Sebring and Le Mans. Nick Heidfeld was available and was looking for a new challenge.

"Nick will be a valuable addition to the team, he is quick, highly-experienced, enthusiastic and very happy to be part of Rebellion Racing. We are pleased to welcome Nick to the team and are looking forward to the start of the season next month at the Sebring 12 Hours, opening round of the new FIA World Endurance Championship."


Nick still #1

The packaging on the rear is much tighter, to the point of having to add in bulges to contain the exhaust outlet.

Good to see the stepped nose isn't completely universal.

I wonder if the stepped nose can be changed w/ just a nose change or if that's an overall chassis design (Ie: step is further back than where the nose meets the body).

Hamilton & Sutil are lover's no more...:noes:

http://axisofoverste...-is-coward.html

Sutil: "Hamilton is a coward"
Wow, no BFF any more for Lewis and Adrian.

Sutil was hoping for a bit more support from his buddy at his disco slasher trial in Germany. You will remember Sutil attacked Renault exec. Eric Lux with a champagne glass in a Shanghai club after last year's GP. Hamilton was there at the time but refused to testify.

Sutil was found guilty, sentenced to a 200000 euro fine and a three year suspended jail sentence. Though hi will not have to surrender his FIA Superlicense, his Formula One career is history.

Sutil told BILD:

"Lewis is a coward, I do not want to be friends with someone like that. He is for me no man, even his father sent me a text message written and wished me luck for the process. Lewis came from nothing. He has changed his phone number. I could not reach him anymore. "
