Didier de Radiguès Born: March 27, 1958 Birthplace: Leuven, Belgium Residence: Monaco

Didier’s record, driving the new Reynard O1Q in the LMP-675 class of the 2001 ALMS, can only be described as sensational! Together with his co-drivers, he went on to victory six times. This included one ELMS win at Jarama, Spain and subsequent ALMS victories at Sears Point, Portland, Mosport, Mid-Ohio and Laguna Seca. Didier’s third place finish at the Petit Le Mans, despite lengthy technical problems was a key to the Dick Barbour Racing team’s claim to both the ALMS and ELMS class championships. To reward his overall outstanding driving performance, Didier was awarded the 2001 ALMS/LMP-675 class Driver’s Championship. Didier had one podium finish in the 2000 ALMS season. He brought the Team Rafanelli V-10 home third at Charlotte. In the 1999 he also reached the podium at the world-famous 24 Hours of Daytona when he finished second driving for the Olive Garden racing team. In 1998 Didier capped a great season with an overall victory in a factory BMW at the Visa Sports Car Championship at Laguna Seca, the final race of the Sports Car Series. His resume includes driving for the BMW factory team in the inaugural International Sports Racing Series in 1998. His BMW win at the 1998 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps along with his Belgian ProCar Class 1 championship helped Didier earn his factory BMW ride in 1998. Didier moved to auto racing from a successful World Championship motorcycle career including five Grand Prix wins.
