Aston Martin Racing partner TF Sport will be taking the Vantage GT3 at the ADAC TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Nürburgring where the souped-up version of the road-going Vantage looks to conquer the famous 24-hour race and make its debut in the said endurance event on May 28 and 29.
“Whenever an Aston Martin has competed in the top class of the Nürburgring 24 Hours it has proven to be a competitive force, and this time around we have a world-class GT3 contender in the Vantage, proven winners in TF Sport running the car, and a squad of champions driving it. This is arguably the best chance yet for Vantage to secure a maiden podium in the world’s toughest GT race and thus establish it as an excellent choice for potential partners looking to succeed on the Nordschleife in the future,” said Head of AMR Partner Racing Huw Tasker.
TF Sport will take the Aston Martin Vantage GT3 to the ADAC 24H Nürburgring Qualifiers on May 7 and 8. Prior to the event, the team will also shoot for the two four-hour endurance Nordschleife Langstracken Series (NLS) events scheduled for April 9.
The race-entry Vantage will be driven by an all-star driver line-up that includes double FIA GT World Endurance champions Nicki Thiim and Marco Sørensen, Le Mans and Spa 24 Hours winner Maxime Martin, and Nürburgring specialist and GT3 Nordschleife lap record holder David Pittard.
