WEC: Fisichella to AF Corse for Le Mans

Three-time grand prix winner Giancarlo Fisichella will rejoin the factory AF Corse Ferrari team for next month's Le Mans 24 Hours.

The Ferrari-contracted driver, whose main 2015 programme is with Risi Competizione in the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship, will again drive with Gianmaria Bruni and Toni Vilander in a bid to repeat their GTE Pro victory of 2014.

Olivier Beretta, who will be making his 20th Le Mans start, again races alongside Davide Rigon and James Calado in the team's second Ferrari 458 Italia entered in the Pro class.

Fisichella and Beretta's confirmation comes with the publication of the full entry list for the double points round of the World Endurance Championship at Le Mans on June 13/14.

Briton Alex Kapadia will make his Le Mans debut with the Taiwanese AAI Porsche GTE Am team. He will share its 997-shape 911 GT3-RSR together with Jun San Chen and Xavier Maassen in the car that will be run by the Belgian ProSpeed squad.
