"DHH", creator of Ruby on Rails (a tool that allows programmers to develop applications), founder and chief technology officer of Basecamp (formerly 37signals, project management tool), author of the New York Times bestsellers Rework and Remote, and race car driver - as he describes himself on his Twitter account - will trade the Morgan-Nissan of OAK Racing, with which he was runner-up in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) in the LMP2 class, for an Aston Martin V8 Vantage.

Will the Dane, whose business is based in Chicago in the United States, and who was runner-up in the LMP2 class in the 2012 American Le Mans Series, become a member of a team 100% Danish, like those who participated in La Sarthe in 2012 and 2013? Preliminary response on Thursday, February 13, 2014 at the Automobile Club de l'Ouest press conference in Paris, announcing the list of entrants to the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA World Endurance Championship FIA (WEC).
