romainIf the reigning ALMS championship-winning Muscle Milk Pickett Racing squad’s driver line-up of Klaus Graf and Lucas Luhr wasn’t tough enough – the HPD squad has now confirmed 2010 24 Hours of Le Mans winner Romain Dumas to fill the additional slot for the endurance events.

With significant factory experience with both Porsche and Audi, Dumas is no stranger to the team having previously driven for Muscle Milk in their Porsche Spyder days.

He also drove the HPD prototype for the first time at Petit Le Mans last year.

“I’m very happy to join Muscle Milk Pickett Racing again for the two biggest events of the American Le Mans Series. I know how important the 12 Hours of Sebring are to clinch the title, so my first target will be to help the team start off the 2013 season the right way,” Dumas said.

“There will be a lot of serious competitors, including Audi Sport, who I know very well. At Sebring, everything can happen and I remember my win in 2008 with the Porsche RS Spyder and I wouldn’t mind doing it again, especially with Muscle Milk Pickett Racing, a team that is excellent in strategy and so quick during the pit stops.

“Petit Le Mans will be another big race. I can’t wait to race again with the team, and with Klaus and Lucas. They are always quick and we always have a lot of fun together.

“I also would like to thank Greg Pickett for giving me this opportunity to drive their Muscle Milk P1 car and Porsche for allowing me to race with the Muscle Milk team.”
