Andrea Pirani joins Team Shepherd

 

German manufacturer Shepherd has announced the signing of the 2010 Italian Vice-Champion Andrea Pirani for the upcoming season. The team believe that Andrea’s experience and speed will make him a great addition to their team that already includes a world class line-up of drivers, and that his input will be appreciated in testing and improving new and existing products. Andrea plans to attend a race in January 2011 in preparation for the World Championship in 2011 and will also compete at the European Championship and the Italian National Championship races. He had this to say:

“I’m very happy to sign for Team Shepherd for 2011. I feel that I am ready to win some great races like the World and European Championships. I have already tested the Velox V8 and I felt very good with it right from the very first laps. The German quality of Shepherd is excellent and I hope to do my best with this new team and I want to help them to achieve some great results.”
