Comtoyou Racing confirm a full AMR powerhouse entry in this years GT World Challenge Europe Series

Thursday, February 22, 2024

We knew that something big was in the making and having waited a few more weeks for that confirmation to come to us sees one of Aston Martin Racing’s latest Partner team confirm a full Pro driver line up in this year’s GT World Challenge Europe Series Endurance Cup.

Adding the nostalgia of launching this year’s centenary running of the Spa 24 with the backdrop of the old Abbey in Stavelot, saw the Comtoyou Racing team confirm that AMR factory drivers Nicki Thiim, Marco Sorensen and ‘new recruit’ and last year’s GTWCE Sprint Champion Mattea Drudi team up for an all-out assault of the overall crown this season.

Displaying one of their new 2024 AMR Vantage GT3’s in public for the first time in Stavelot since changing allegiances to the AMR brand, the Belgium based team confirmed their fresh ambition to succeed at the highest level not only within the Spa 24 event but also within the other series that they have committed to this season with confirmation of the remaining driver slot being announced in the coming weeks.

“We will have to wait a few more weeks before we know who all the drivers will be representing Comtoyou Racing. “We are still in discussions to finalise our crews,” confirms Team Manager François Verbist. “We have a great many contacts and we are still open to last-minute discussions. Our objective is clear: to put together the best possible crews, while also taking into account the constraints faced by a team like ours.”

The GT World Challenge Series Endurance Cup kicks off in Barcelona in early April, just days after its season opening Prologue test at the Spanish circuit before progressing onto Spa in late June, then the Nurburgring and Monza before concluding in Jeddah (yes, that’s not in Europe!) to conclude another season in late November.
