Pictorial history of the Aston Martin Racing V12 Vantage GT3 fleet

Monday, December 03, 2018


With 2018 being the final year of factory assisted racing around the world for the extremely successful Aston Martin Racing V12 Vantage GT3, we bring to you our version a brief pictorial history of each of the forty five chassis made by the Prodrive factory since 2012.

This piece has been made possible with the kind support of Ivan at the Facebook Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3 Chassis Number Tracking page and has been taken from the point in time towards the end of the end of Summer 2018. Whilst not every livery or race event has been listed, we have tried to illustrate the principle teams and series involved who between them have won a sizeable number of race and championship wins.

We are also hoping that Ivan goes on to expand upon all of these entries with further details that he has recorded in relation to drivers, races and finishes.
