ACO Appoints New Media Delegate for Asian Le Mans Series Asian Le Mans Endurance Management Ltd today announced it has appointed Jane Rowe as their new Media Delegate.

Jane brings with her significant experience in Public Relations, particularly in the Motorsport and Automotive sectors. Prior to moving to the UK last year, Jane worked for Michelin Australia. There she successfully managed the company's motorsport partnerships including their presence at the Bathurst 12 Hour, the technical partnership with the Porsche Carrera Cup Australia, and their sponsorship of the Australian Off Road Championship with their sister brand BFGoodrich Tires. In addition Jane has worked with many teams and drivers both in Australia and in the UK over the past 15 years.

Jane Rowe, Asian Le Mans Series Media Delegate: "I am excited to have the opportunity to work for the ACO, and with Cyrille and his team to make the Asian Le Mans Series an even bigger success. I have watched with interest the growth of the Series over the last few years and see even further potential within what is a unique offer in the Asian motorsport sector."

"While the Series is still very much in its infancy in global motorsport terms, it is growing rapidly into an important step in the global endurance ladder, particularly in Asia. With a record 9 cars from teams that contested the 2016/17 Asian Le Mans Series invited to take part in Le Mans 24 Hours this year, it really is an exciting time to be involved."

Cyrille Taesch Wahlen, Asian Le Mans Managing Director: "We are very pleased to welcome Jane to the team. As the Asian Le Mans Series continues to grow we needed someone with her ability in place to help capture the attention of our audience; we need to leverage the interest being shown in the Series both in the region and globally. Jane brings with her the skills and experience that we need to achieve this, particularly with regard to media and stakeholder management."

ABOUT THE ASIAN LE MANS SERIES Launched in 2013 by the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO), the Asian Le Mans Series is the embodiment of Le Mans endurance racing for the Asian continent. Initially operated by a third party company, the ACO took over management, organisation and promotion of the Series at the end of 2014. As part of the Le Mans Endurance Racing Pyramid, it complements the European Le Mans Series and Weather Tech Sports Car Championship. The FIA World Endurance Championship caps this ensemble while the Le Mans 24 Hours, the ultimate challenge that all the teams and drivers want to win, is the summit of excellence of this pyramid. Champions of the LMP2, LMP3 and GT categories of the Asian Le Mans Series earn invitations to participate in the following year’s Le Mans 24 Hours.
