Doohan abandoned his European Le Mans Series program with LMP2 team Nielsen Racing to focus on his Haas commitments.<\/p>\n

Despite recent upheaval at Haas, Doohan was overlooked for opportunities with the team in favour of Ryo Hirakawa in Mexico and Rafael Camara for Brazil.<\/p>\n

Now the Australian has been confirmed to join another LMP2 team, AF Corse, in the Asian Le Mans Series.<\/p>\n

Doohan will join Great Britain\u2019s Phil Hanson and Alex Dimirdjian of Germany for the 4 Hours of Le Castellet at Paul Ricard.<\/p>\n

LMP2 features one other Australian in Gianmarco Pradel, who will join Duqueine Team with Antti Rammo (Estonia) and August Raber (Sweden).<\/p>\n

GT3 features a strong Australian contingent headlined by Tom Sargent. He will race a Herberth Motorsport Porsche 911 GT3 R with Mathieu Jaminet (France) and Ralf Bohn (Germany).<\/p>\n

Christian Mansell joins 2Seas Motorsport in its Mercedes-AMG GT3 alongside British duo Kiern Jewiss and Charles Dawson.<\/p>\n

Nicolas Stati makes his series debut with Leipert Motorsport in a new Lamborghini Temerario GT3. Stati will join New Zealand\u2019s Brendon Leitch and Lance Bergstein of the United States.<\/p>\n

Hunter McElrea will continue his season with United Autosports alongside Mikkel Jensen (Denmark) and Phil Fayer (United States).<\/p>\n

Following round one, the series heads to Spain for the 4 Hours of Jerez on January 15-17. That will be followed by the 4 Hours of Portimao in Portugal. Each round features two four-hour races.<\/p>\n
