Wednesday, April 23, 2025
The latest all centres around this years forthcoming Nurburgring 24 and the preparatory races and Qualifying rounds catered for within the Nurburgring Langstrecken Serie – particularly this weekend with NLS2 where we will see six Aston Martin Racing powered crews from Walkenhorst Motorsport and Prosport Racing teams.
Walkenhorst will this time be the busiest as they plan to field three AMR Vantage GT3 crews across the available SP9 classes as well as a new Vantage GT4 Evo within the SP10 class alongside two older 17A iteration of Vantage GT4 from the locally based Prosport team within both the SP10 and SP8T classes.
Earlier this week, Walkenhorst confirmed their full works Pro driver line up ahead of the 24hr with Mattia Drudi, Christian Krognes, David Pittard and Nicki Thiim, some of those drivers will be on hand again this weekend as they and the team get their eyes in around the infamous “Green hell”.
Starting with the full season NLS entries again has the #140 Prosport GT8R entry of Maxime and Guido Dumarey alongside their sister #175 SP10 entry of Jorge Viebahn, Yannik Himmels and Michel Albers. The #191 Walkenhorst SP10 entry for Niklas Abrahamsen and Hermann Vortkamp complete the GT4 line up in SP10 with their new Evo version.
Both Krognes and Drudi will partner in the team’s #34 Pro classed SP9 entry with former ADAC GT Masters runner Nico Hantke stepping up with Anders Buchardt within the #35 Pro-Am SP9 entry with the #36 Am classed entry being driven by Jorg Breuer, Stefan Aust and Christian Bollrath.
This weekend’s round will be 140 cars and a four-hour race starting at about midday local having already ran their qualifying runs in the morning – weather permitting of course!
