Still just at their third round of a five-round season, the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup runners are back in action this weekend with a step across the border from their previous round in Belgium to this weekend’s venue at the Nurburgring. Last time out was of course the Spa 24 where the #7 Comtoyou Racing Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 of Matteo Drudi, Nicki Thiim and Marco Sorensen where in position to snatch an unexpected overall race win at the end after the race leading Ferrari was baulked in the pit lane going into their final stop. To come first - first you must ..read more

  One person’s loss is certainly another one’s gain as one former IMSA Aston Martin Racing Vantage GTD gets a new lease of life down under within the SRO GT World Challenge Australia Series. Confirmed earlier this week, sees the Volante Rosso team just take delivery of their latest racing acquisition as the team recently received delivery of the former Andretti Autosport Vantage GTD car driven within the Weathertech Sportscar Championship last season by Jarrett Andretti and Gabby Chaves. Previously more familiar with the Radical, Porsche GT and single seater formulae, the New South ..read more

  This weekend’s fifth round of GT Cup Championship from Silverstone will see one or two more new faces that what previous media releases have suggested. The obvious news for this weekend is the inclusion of the Beechdean AMR Vantage GT3 team as team boss Andrew Howard looks for some quick, competitive track time to get him back on the GT3 straight and narrow before the next round of the British GT Championship from Donington Park in six weeks’ time. Having missed the last two sprint races of the Championship around the Snetterton 300 circuit in Norfolk through ‘prior commitment’, t ..read more

  An unfortunate event marred the return of SRO America’s three series back to track action from the Virginia International Raceway at the weekend as one Aston Martin Racing Partner team felt forced to take self-imposed action having failed to find explanation from the governing organisation. The Flying Lizard Motorsport team were again at hand at the circuit to support their three customer drivers competing within both the GT America and GT World Challenge America Series in both AMR Vantage GT3 and GT4’s but it was via the unsatisfactory performances of their #08 Vantage GT3 car of El ..read more

  Last week we saw the shape of things to come as far as the Heart of Racing and Aston Martin were concerned as their all-new Valkyrie LMH Hypercar set about its first public laps around Silverstone in advance of their planned IMSA Weathertech Sportscar Championship and FIA World Endurance Champiosnhip debut next season. With the co-joined project with Aston Martin Performance Technologies now based around the Northamptonshire circuit, last week’s video captures were of the cars first systems checks and installation runs before a more rigorous testing and development programme comes in ..read more

  It was to be a frustrating return to the GT World Challenge Europe Series for the Belgian based Comtoyou Racing Aston Martin Racing powered team as they travelled to the Hockenheim circuit in Germany for the third round of the Sprint Cup Series. The biggest surprise for this round was the number of times the SRO visited that touchy subject of Balance of Performance during the meeting, something which eventually saw the series adjust that of the AMR Vantage GT3’s BoP three times in a quest for their infamous parity amongst brands. Despite arriving at the circuit as newly crowned Spa ..read more

  Another two frantic races from the GT4 European Series from Hockenheim this weekend saw little reward for the eight Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT4 crews amongst another healthy and highly competitive grid of fifty-one runners. High temperatures and blistering sunshine this time around produced a differing set of considerations for the teams and drivers to make after the cooler temperatures and precipitation of the last round at Spa Francorchamps three weeks ago as tyre management again became the focus of their attention. Saturday’s opening race saw Roberto Faria become the highes ..read more

A fifty-one strong GT4 field has descended upon the Hockenheimring in Germany for round four of the GT4 European Series.

Last time out for the series at Spa Francorchamps saw the whole range of results with some literally crashing out of the proceedings even before the weekend’s first race but with others taking class po ..read more

  Three weeks since their triumphant win at the Crowdstrike 24 Hours of Spa Francorchamps, the Belgian based Comtoyou Racing team are back in action again this weekend as the GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup Series resumes in Germany. After rounds at both Brands Hatch and most recently at Misano, the overall result for the team at Spa has come as a timely injection of confidence in both themselves and their new Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 race car platform after disappointing results for the team at the previous rounds for their trio of entries. Despite a front row start for ..read more

  Two months since they all came out race around the Circuit of the Americas back in mid-May, but this weekend finally sees the SRO America trilogy of series back in action again from the beautiful Virginia International Raceway. Again involving all three of their GT World Challenge America, GT4 America and GT America Series, this weekend will see the GT3 only and GT4 America series race their respective fourth round of their seven round seasons whilst the amateur only, mixed class of the GT America Series race their fifth round of an eight-round season this weekend. Unfortunately ..read more
