Testing times for Bathurst

Some of you may have noticed that over the last few days a few of next months Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12hrs Aston Martin runners have been testing prior to the big event.

Miedecke Stone Motorsport tested last week at the Queensland Raceway circuit with drivers George Miedecke and Ashley Walsh reuniting and Tony Bates in the teams spare V12 Vantage GT3 chassis for the first time.


Yesterday, we learned that Young Driver AMR boss, Jan Struve is quietly getting up to speed at a two day test at the exclusive Ascari circuit near Malaga in southern Spain.

What has he been driving? Only his Aston Martin Zagato we last saw out at the Aston Martin Racing Festival at the Le Mans 24 in 2015!!
