Romain Dumas, winner of the 24 Heures of Le Mans 2010 with Audi, will dive the Lola Aston Martin of the Muscle Milk team with Klaus Graf in the next ALMS race on 3rd September at Baltimore.

Last year, Romain Dumas raced for team Muscle Milk, replacing Greg Pickett at Mosport. Driving a Porsche RS Spyder, he scored a brilliant victory. This time, it will be driving a Lola Aston Martin on the streets of Baltimore, which host the ALMS for the first time.

Greg Pickett, team owner :"We truly enjoyed working with Romain last season so it was an easy decision to ask him to join us once again. We will miss Lucas, but we knew coming into this that he had a conflicting GT1 race that weekend. Romain has become part of the Muscle Milk family and we're very excited to have him co-drive for us in Baltimore."

Romain Dumas, driver : "I'm honored that they've asked me to drive with Klaus. The team is fighting for a championship and coming in like this, not knowing the car, won't be easy so it's a big vote of confidence on their part and I want to give back to them in the best way possible."
