Alex Buncombe will support Maxime Soulet and Andy Soucek at Monza

After the departure of Vincent Abril to AKKA-ASP, Bentley motorsport had not confirmed a replacement for the season to race in the No. 3 Continental GT108 in Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup

The first round of the season at Monza (April 12-14) will finally see Briton Alex Buncombe, Nissan Team RJN driver in the Blancpain GT Series until 2018, support Maxime Soulet and Andy Soucek on the Lombard autodrome.

Buncombe, 2015 Endurance Cup champion, had already confirmed by Bentley Motorsport to compete in the next 24 Hours of Spa, at the same time as Lucas Ordóñez, also a former Nissan resident, and Markus Palttala, lined up with Emil Frey Racing last year.
