The young Scottish driver Colin Noble did his Michelin Le Mans Cup debut this season with Nielsen Racing at the wheel of the n°79 Ligier JS P3 and started really well with a win at Monza, the first round of the 2017 calendar. After a regular season Colin and the team ended second of the teams and driver’s classification.
Can you tell us about your 2017 season?
It’s been a really good year, it started very well at Monza with a win and then we moved on and stayed consistent. We could have been second at Le Mans, we were really quick but we went off in the last lap and lost the podium. And then from there we did our job, stayed in the front row and in the top 6, we tried to close the gap with the Norma and generally got the fastest lap but that gap was just too big.
Best moments of the 2017 season:
The Michelin Le Mans Cup in 3 words
Really Good Fun!
Do you have any plans for 2018?
I hope to compete again in Michelin Le Mans Cup again, I don’t know the line up yet but hopefully we will get back to fight for the championship next year. I won the title in Britain so hope to go back there as well
