Pirelli hopeful of Petit Le Mans success

This weekend sees the finale of the American Le Mans Series (ALMS), the Petit Le Mans. The 1,000-mile or 10-hour race is being held at Road Atlanta, not far from Pirelli’s MIRS factory at Rome, Georgia, and Pirelli’s hopes are riding on the Ferrari 550 Maranellos of Team Olive Garden. Pirelli won the inaugural Petit Le Mans event in 1998.
