    For the same reason he will also miss the 24 hours of Le Mans...
    Tom will be replaced for the Catalunya round by Mike Hezemans who has a lot of Spyker race experience. Excellent replacement.

      He also raced for the Spyker Squadron in the Mil Milhas Brasil. And they did very well! A fourth place in the GT2 class.

          That is very good news! Now we have to hope that the 3rd Spyker may also join!

              @Hans van Rennes, never underestimate the power of the Spyker Owner forum

              Can you maybe tell us already somethings about the new C8 Laviolette GT2R?
              When can we see the first pictures? Geneva? Or sooner
              Will the Squadron also be present at Sebring this year? Or will you skip a year?

                  Le Mans 2008 drivers

                  Now that we know two Spykers are in the 2008 Le Mans 24 hours race, we can now move to the next phase:

                  Who will be the drivers?

                  It is safe to assume that the drivers of the Le Mans Series will also drive in the 24 hours race of Le Mans. There is only one problem, there are three Spykers in LMS and only two (for now) for Le Mans. I think the Speedy Spyker will go with their LMS drivers:
                  P. Camandona (SUI) – A. Chiesa (SUI) – B. Leuenberger (SUI)
                  From the Speedy pressrelease: "The list of the 2008 pilots is not final and tests in Castellet will be decisive". (wonder when that test will be? Before LMS test at Paul Ricard? Would be nice to see the new Spyker C8 Laviolette GT2R!).
                  That leaves: Tom Coronel (HOL) - Peter Dumbrek (SCO) - Ralf Kelleners (GER) - Alexei Vassiliev (RUS) for the workscar. Coronel can't make it, he has a WTCC race. So will the other three team up for the works Spyker at Le Mans? Personally i would rather see Mike Hezemans replace Alexei Vassiliev for the 24 hours of Le Mans. If the second workscar will be in the race (i doubt it but you never know, keep my fingers crossed!!) than three more drivers will be needed...

                  How am i doing so far Hans?

                  And what happened to Janis Jarek? Is he still suffering from the Spa accident?

                      Tyres

                      Looks like Spyker Squadron is using Dunlop tyres for the European Le Mans Series and Michelin tyres for the 24 hours of Le Mans. Just like last year.
                      Speedy Racing could use Dunlop for the European Le Mans Series as well as Le Mans 24 hours race...

                        Paul Ricard LMS test

                        Spyker Squadron will NOT be present at the Paul Ricard test on 2-3 March.
                        Speedy Racing will be there though with their new Spyker Laviolette GT2R.

                        Can't wait!

                          I saw on the site RTL GP - Het auto- en motorsportplatform van RTL Nederland - Home (Dutch) the startlist of the 24 hours of Le Mans. They have one Spyker on the list. Hopely their bring two to Le Mans, with number 85 and 86. But if their more news about this, hopely I can post it. Or some one else.

                              AX lover, yes that's right. But Spyker Squardron comes always with two cars, car number 85 and 86. And only car 85 stay on the list.
