Two AMR powered sets of drivers confirmed for next months Dubai 24
Saturday, December 28, 2024
With the number of indeed names of car entries having fluctuated over recent weeks as proposals turned into realities, it appears that it will just be the Comtoyou Racing and Earl Bamber Motorsport teams representing the British brand at next month’s twentieth anniversary running of the event at the Dubai Autodrome.
Within the #40 Comtoyou entry we see another large Belgian contingent as Matisse Lismont remains with the team from his GT World Challenge Europe commitments earlier this season alongside that of WEC Corvette racer Tom Van Rompuy. They will be joined by British GT4 and European GT4 racer Jamie Day as he continues to step up from the GT4 class into GT3 ahead of a 2025 season.
Whilst the #41 Comtoyou sadly remains with a string of TBC’s aside its entry, that leaves the #77 EBM entry of Setiawan Santosa returning to the team after his GT World Challenge Asia commitments with them this season along two other Thai co-drivers.

Tanart Sathienthirakul is another proficient silver driver from the GT World Challenge Asia Series whilst Munkong Sathienthirakul comes from the TCR Asia ranks.
First track sessions of the Dubai 24 start on Monday 6th January with private testing before the 24 hour itself ran over the 11th and 12th January.
It now appears that it will be just the EBM AMR entry that now also runs within the 24H Series 6Hrs of Abu Dhabi the weekend after too.
