No. 68: David Robertson, Andrea Robertson, David Murry

A lifelong dream comes true for the first grandparents to race at Le Mans . The husband-and-wife team of David and Andrea Robertson, who have competed in the ALMS since 2007 and since 2008 with their Doran Ford GT-R, make their Le Mans debuts this year in the GTE Am class with the No. 68 car.

A late change sees David Murry replace Boris Said as the third driver, but this reunites the former Porsche and Lotus factory driver with his longtime co-drivers. The Robertsons were unique in utilizing a three driver lineup during ALMS events the last few seasons, and were only split up from Murry for the first time at this year’s 12 Hours of Sebring. Le Mans actually marks the first race start for the team since Sebring, who opted to forego the west coast trip to Long Beach to prepare and send two cars to Le Mans for April’s test day.
