As with all Aston Martins, the new LMP1 will be petrol-powered and designed to make the best use of the ACO\u2019s stringent regulations.<\/p>\n<p>Aston Martin Chairman, David Richards said: \u201cHaving won the GT category twice at Le Mans in 2007 and 2008 and the Le Mans Series outright in 2009, we still want to achieve our ultimate goal of winning the 24 Hour race overall to bring the title back to Britain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn recent years, it has been impossible for petrol cars to compete on equal terms with the diesels. However, we now have assurances from the ACO that, with the adoption of the 2011 regulations, they will properly balance the performance of these new cars. Under these circumstances we have been prepared to develop Aston Martin\u2019s first purpose-built racing chassis and engine for more than 50 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven with this new car, it will still be a \u2018David and Goliath\u2019 fight against the massive resources of our competitors, but we have become accustomed to this and relish the challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Work on the new chassis and engine has been progressing for several months at Aston Martin Racing\u2019s headquarters in Banbury, UK and the first of a limited number of six cars will run in early 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ulrich Bez, CEO of Aston Martin said: \u201cRacing is a fundamental part of Aston Martin\u2019s heritage and Le Mans is the race that every true sports car maker aspires to win. While every aspect of this new LMP1 car has been built purely for racing, we also remain committed to developing race-winning GT cars based on our road cars. We are the only manufacturer to offer a race car for every category from GT1 to GT4.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aston Martin\u2019s first and only outright victory at Le Mans was in 1959 with the DBR1 of Roy Salvadori and Carroll Shelby. Aston Martin Racing has been at the pinnacle of endurance racing since it was founded in 2004 with multiple factory and customer wins across the globe including two GT1 class victories at Le Mans in 2007 and 2008, and an overall Le Mans series win in 2009.<\/p>\n<p>Story by Aston Martin Racing<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n
