Maxime Martin to depart the Aston Martin Racing family

In a simple post upon his social media earlier, Aston Martin Racing factory today confirmed that he will be leaving #TeamAMR for pastures new at the end of the season.

Brought in to support the AMR factory effort within the World Endurance Championship in 2018, the Belgium has also become a recognisable figure for various AMR customer teams within many paddocks including the British GT, GT World Challenge Europe and most reacently IMSA.

Always the gentleman, we understand the reasons for his departure and wish him all the best for the future. His social media post read:-

After an incredible five-year journey, it's time to say goodbye to the Aston Martin Racing family. It's impossible for me to count the challenges we have overcome. We have competed in many different championships, always sharing the same goals: to win and to do our best, as we have proven again this season 👊🏻

With AMR I achieved one of the greatest results of my entire career: winning the 2020 24 Hours of Le Mans was simply incredible, and I will never forget the sweet taste of that wonderful victory 🏆

For me it's time to move on, aiming for the start of a new and exciting chapter in my career. 👀 

Thank you very much Aston Martin Racing: I wish you all the best for the future, and I look forward to meet you again in one of the many paddocks next year! 🍀

Maxime.
