Kamui Kobayashi with BMW on the Fuji Dream Race

Alongside Alessandro Zanardi, Bmw motorsport will trust the Japanese Kamui Kobayashi to ride on one of the three M4s lined up for the joint Dream Race DTM / Super GT, organized next November in Fuji, during the final of the Japanese series.

The resident of Toyota Gazoo Racing fera ses débuts dans la catégorie tourisme, lui qui est un habitué des joutes du Super GT et de la Super Formula depuis 2015.

“Like Alessandro Zanardi, our second driver for the Dream Race is another gem, mentions Jens Marquardt, boss of BMW Motorsport. Kamui demonstrated his class and versatility in Formula 1, at Le Mans and in Formula E.

He's sure to be fast in the BMW M4 DTM too. We will soon reveal the third driver of our “Dream Team” for Fuji. »

BMW has not yet requisitioned any driver entered in DTM, unlike Audi Sport which will notably place its trust in the French Loïc duval and Benoît Tréluyer and to the 2019 champion René Rast.
