ADR-Delta is pleased to announce that Japanese driver Shinji Nakano will join the team from Round 7 of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) – the 6 Hours of Fuji on October 14th.

Shinji, 41, a former Grand Prix driver with the Prost and Minardi teams, will bring a huge wealth of experience to the ADR-Delta team where he will race alongside the team’s regular drivers John Martin (AUS) and Tor Graves (THL).

Shinji is not short of sports prototype experience, and has contested the world famous Le Mans 24 Hour Race on six occasions. He first drove in the French classic in 2005 and was in action in the race this year.

Simon Dowson, Team Manager: “We are very pleased to welcome Shinji to ADR-Delta and we are really looking forward to working with him. We are proud that we will have a Japanese driver in our car for the 6 Hours of Fuji where we will be looking for a very good result with our Oreca 03-Nissan.”

Alan Docking, Team Principal: “Shinji is a very experienced driver and has driven at the highest level in F1 and IndyCar. He also has a good record in sports prototypes and we are all very much looking forward to working with him.”
