Belgium Aston Martin Racing team, Street Art Racing have this month released their own Team App to work across the IOS and Google platforms for their forthcoming season with their two AMR V8 Vantage GT4's.

Famous for their highly unusual but very 'arty' car liveries, the team says that is again looking to return to the SRO GT4 European Series in either (or both) of the Northern and Southern Cups. We also see a diary slot allocated to the AMR Festival from Le Mans in June as well as something about the Spa 24 in a GT3 which is interesting!


App can be downloaded from the App Store.

The FFSA supported European GT4 Southern Cup Series will be one of the latest series to round off their 2017 season as they host their own 'Grande finale' down at the Paul Ricard circuit in southern France this weekend.

As expected, both full season Aston Martin entries from Street Art Racing and Generation AMR SuperRacing will be their with both of their beautifully liveried V8 Vantage GT4's as each look to see out their year on a high within the highly competitive Pro-Am class.

In the Belgium SAR entered #117 car will again be Eric Cayrolle and Arno Santamato whilst James Holder and Matt George again share the Appleby Engineering prepared #44 car.


For George and Holder, a private test at the circuit last weekend should at least allow them a 'quick get away' as they look to capitalise on their present P8 position in the overall European GT4 Series Team's Championship (a table for teams who have entered races within both the Northern and Southern Cups) - a position that could easily be improved upon with two decent finishes this weekend.

This weekend will also definitely not be the last for the UK team with an Aston Martin in Europe as, if reports are to believed, they will come out of this winter's closed season with an exciting new GT4 project. (UPDATED!)

As usual, both of this weekend's races can be viewed live HERE

The FFSA European GT4 Series Southern Cup heads to Dijon with three V8 Vantage GT4's this time making the trip down for their third round of the season after their last event around the streets of Pau.
Joining the 33 car strong entry will again be the two single car full season entries from Street Art Racing and Generation AMR SuperRacing joined this time by the sister Street Art Racing car normally seen in the series parallel Northern Cup series.

In the #7 SAR car, regular driver Jerome Demay is joined this time by Frenchman Sébastien Pineau whilst the #44 Genartion AMR car of James Holder and Matt George and #117 SAR car of Eric Cayrolle and Arno Santamato remain unchanged.

This will be the second time that the series has visited this track in 2017 having used it for their official test day prior to the season.


With Round 4 of the International GT Open Championship heads for the Hungaroring this weekend, but we are surprised to see that Italian team Solaris Motorsport are missing from the provisional entry list for the event. We are awaiting confirmation of this from the team as to the reasons why.

Two Aston Martin Racing V8 Vantage GT4's will make the long trek down towards the Pyrenees for the second round of the FFSA European GT4 Series Southern Cup and the 76th running of the Pau Grand Prix.

Taking in the challenges of the incredibly tight 2.76km street circuit will be the #44 car of Generation AMR SuperRacing with James Holder and Matt George again behind the wheel as well as the #117 Street Art Racing car of Eric Cayrolle and Arno Santamto as well as thirty other GT4 cars from six manufacturers.


Between the AMR runners you might have to favour the #117 car as Cayrolle comes from Pau and neither Brit in the #44 have active racing experience of the street circuit although George has 'spannered' there on many occasions before.

With neither AMR car also fairing as well as they had hoped at the series opener at Nogaro a month ago both ail be hoping that the surprises that any street circuit can throw up can work in their favour.

"Its a very daunting place but we have confidence in the car and it will be great fun and experience to race on such a circuit. Then of course the first race goes into the night so that will be an extra challenge" Matt George told us earlier this week.

With its sister series having started about two weeks ago, this weekend shall see the start of the revitalised for 2017 French FFSA GT series running under the form of the European GT4 - Southern Cup from the Nogaro circuit near the Pyrenees border with Spain.

Mimicking its sister Northern Cup championship, the Southern Cup will also feature two full season Aston Martin Racing V8 Vantage GT4' entries in the form of one from the Belgium Street Art Racing team and one from the David Appleby Engineering company with their Generation AMR SuperRacing  car.


The #44 Generation AMR crew of James Holder and Matt George have been privately testing at the Catalunya Circuit in Barcelona prior to this weekend's event. The highly decorative #117 Street Art Racing car will be driven by French duo Eric Cayrolle and Amo Santamato.

Both cars will run in the Pro-Am class



Like the Northern Cup the event at Nogaro will feature two - one hour races with a compulsory pit stop and driver change starting and ending either side of the half way mark of the race.
