No. 91, nicknamed “Grello” because of its mix of green and yellow, will be reserved for the 2023 champion, Thomas Preining. No. 90 being taken by the Turk Ayhançan Güven.

“I am very happy to be back in the DTM with Manthey EMA in 2024, and to defend our Drivers, Teams and Manufacturers titles, said Thomas Preining. This is obviously easier said than done, as we once again have a long and tiring season ahead of us. But I'm really looking forward to it.

I see how motivated and hungry each team member is for success. This is not something that can be taken for granted, and I attach great importance to it. I am convinced that we will have an excellent season in 2024.”

His new teammate is also motivated. “I am very excited to participate in this project and seize the opportunities that it brings. For a driver, it's fantastic to be part of the reigning champion team. And for me, as a Porsche driver, who started in the Sports Cup in 2016, this is of particular importance. Going through all these different situations to finally drive in the DTM – it's a dream come true. »
