THE TEAM
Olivier Lyonnet, Managing Director, has always been passionate about cars and motor racing. His motor racing activities started in 1991, exporting exotic and classic cars from beautiful California. In 1992, he joined Venturi Competition, where he was involved in the setup of the Gentlemen Drivers Trophy and the Venturi GT programme (BPR and Le Mans). 1996 saw the birth of the successful Lamborghini Supertrophy, managed by Olivier within SRO for six action-packed seasons, racing at worldwide venues including Laguna Seca, Melbourne, Kyalamy and Zhuhaï.
Olivier was then involved in other SRO activities such as the FIA GT and the FFSA French GT Championships and the GT90’s Revival taking care of several technical aspects as well as team coordination.
He then decided to look for a new challenge in a very different environment and spent more than 10 years working in Electronic Consumer Products and Broadband IPTV for French operator Bouygues Telecom, before being seduced by the promising opportunities offered by the SRO Race Centre by MMC.
Benefitting from his broad experience with Ferrari and Maserati race cars through JMB Racing over 20 years, Chief Mechanic Jean-Jacques Grondin will provide his expertise on cars such as the F360, F575 and in particular the Ferrari 333SP and the Maserati MC12.
On top of his previous experience with Sonauto in 1994, Jean-Jacques has a strong technical background on many makes including Nissan and Porsche as well as on components such as Hewland or Xtrac.
