Nissan-powered cars finish 1st and 2nd in 2011 Le Mans 24 Hours

Nissan-powered cars finished in first and second place in the 2011 Le Mans 24 Hours over the weekend.

Olivier Lombard took the chequered flag as LMP2 winner in the Zytek Nissan of Greaves Motorsport. In second place was the Oreca 03 Nissan of the Signatech Nissan team of Lucas Ordonez, Franck Mailleux and Soheil Ayari.

The drama-filled 2011 Le Mans 24 Hours will be remembered as the race that beat some of the best with many top drivers and manufacturers filing to finish. And Nissan's Lucas Ordonez went from winning a competition just three years ago to taking a podium position at the toughest race in the world!
