How an Italian junior formula giant is readying for its Le Mans future

Prema remains a colossus in single-seaters, but the serial Formula 2 and Formula 3 title-winning squad has joined forces with top GT squad Iron Lynx for an attack on sportscars in the World Endurance Championship and European Le Mans Series.

“You know how much time you spend together in motorsport, it’s almost like being a family. And if you don’t get on well together, it doesn’t work.”
