Saturday, September 12, 2015
Three Aston Martin V12 Vantages are now confirmed for the final round of the Blancpain Endurance Series at the Nurburgring next weekend.
Full season entries Oman Racing and Leonard Motorsport return with their #44 and #32 cars respectively. As previously reported its all change in the Pro Cup Oman Racing car with Rory Butcher and Stefan Mucke now co-piloting the blue and white car with regular Ahmad Al Harthy. The car will however only be racing for pride having endured a torrid season of poor or non finishes prior to this race.
In the #32 Pro Am car Paul Wilson returns to the car having had to miss the last round at Spa due to the impending birth of the latest Wilson Junior! Whilst Tom Onslow-Cole did a superb job at the 24H in his place normal service will now resume alongside Stuart Leonard and Michael Meadows whilst they defend their runners up position in the series.
Newcomers TF Sport have recently announced an entry into Pro Am for their latest customer driver line up of Euan Hankey, SalihYoluk and Bradley Ellis. Whilst Hankey and Yoluk competed with great success last weekend in the International GT Open series, this race will be another step up the steep learning curve for them and the GT3 inexperienced Ellis who joins them for the first time.
