Witham racing driver James Winslow believes he can make a winning return on his comeback to professional competing in Europe this year.

Winslow has announced that he will be part of the Gulf Racing team in the 2015 European Le Mans Series and is confident that he is joining an outfit that can challenge for the top step of the podium.

His move to the European Le Mans Series will see Winslow pilot the Gulf-liveried Porsche RSR GTE at some of Europe’s finest circuits alongside Mike Wainwright and Adam Carroll in the GTE category.

Winslow said: “I’m very excited about this season.

“Every racing driver wants to win races in the famous and nostalgic colours and brands that are Gulf and Porsche, and that’s exactly what will happen this season.

“We have a very strong package in the Gulf Racing Porsche for the 2015 ELMS season.

“We will be podium finishers and race winners this year.

“I am confident we can win races."
