Panis retires from Le Mans racing

Olivier Panis has called time on his Le Mans racing career, stating that his fifth position in last weekend's event will be the last result he will post at La Sarthe. The 44-year-old former Monaco Grand Prix winner has competed in four Le Mans for ORECA since 2008, and this year shared the team's privately-entered year-old Peugeot 908 HDi FAP with Nicolas Lapierre and Loic Duval. But the Frenchman is quitting Le Mans because he thinks his chances of securing a drive that will put him in contention to win the race are low
