ALMS releases 2011 Sebring poster

Sebring Poster

The official poster for the 59th annual Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring presented by Fresh from Florida has been unveiled. This year’s poster features a scene by motorsports artist Roger Warrick showing the final turn of Sebring’s legendary 3.7-mile circuit. The artwork reflects the diverse field of Le Mans Prototypes and GT cars entered in this year’s classic.

America’s premier sports car endurance race takes the green flag on Saturday, March 19th, kicking off the American Le Mans Series presented by Tequila Patr¢n and the first round of the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup.

“Roger Warrick has captured the drama associated with turn 17 at Sebring," stated Sebring President and General Manager Tres Stephenson. “This turn is known for its different racing lines and rough surface, elements that make Sebring the world’s toughest sports car racing event."

For six decades, the Sebring poster has been a fixture of America’s oldest and most prestigious sports car race. Many posters are now highly-coveted collector’s items. The Sebring poster can be purchased at Sebring International Raceway beginning on Feb. 7th, or online at sebringraceway.com.
