Three further AMR powered teams to compete within this weekends NLS and Super GT Series

Three further Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 powered crews see out this weekend’s mainstream events for AMR’s customer and Partner teams across the world as both the Walkenhorst Motorsport and Prosport Racing teams return to the Nurburgring Nordschleife for the latest round of the NLS season and the D’Station Racing team make a return in the Japanese Super GT Series.

Starting in Germany, there has been some controversary already this week after another Nurburgring based endurance series was confirmed for 2027 supported by enticing automatic entries and reduced fees into next year’s ADAC Ravenol 24H main event. All of this would again be in direct competition with the more established Nurburgring Langstrecken Series (nee VLN Series) who race again this weekend with another healthy multi-classed grid.

 

Competing within Saturday’s six hour will again be the #35 Walkenhorst SP9 Pro class entry of Christian Krognes and Dennis Fetzer who last time out in late June (and alongside Mateo Villagomez) secure both overall pole position for the first time plus managing to bring their car home P5 overall, P3 in class.

They will be joined again by the #37 Prosport Racing AMR Vantage GT3 of Maxime and Guido Dumarey alongside Marek Bochmann, a team who was also successful last time out in that four-hour race by finishing third within their SP9 Am class. This weekend’s race will, however, be a six-hour affair.

 

Finally, we welcome the cars and teams of the Japanese Super GT Series back on track this weekend as after an enforced layover following the cancellation of the intended third round of the season at Sepang in late June.

For this weekend, the combined GT500 and GT300 grids of which the #777 D’Station Racing AMR Vantage GT3 of Tomonobu Fujii and Charlie Fagg will again be part of as they protect their slender GT300 class lead after their class win first time out at Okayama followed up by a P7 finish at Fuji.

 

This weekend, the series is again back at the Fuji Speedway but this time for a more typical race calendar with a 300km race as opposed to the two individual sprint races as tried last year.
