Earl Bamber Motorsport confirms trios for Bathurst

In the philosophy of SRO Motorsports, manufacturers entered in the Intercontinental GT Challenge must rely as much as possible on local teams to operate the cars lined up for the five rounds on the series program.

Porsche Motorsport ne dérogera pas à la règle pour l’ouverture de la saison aux 12 Heures de Bathurst (1-3 février), mais ne fera pas confiance à n’importe quelle structure, en confiant deux équipages de trois pilotes officiels au Earl Bamber Motorsport.

The Weissach pilot team in WEC (including two successes at the 24 Hours of Le Mans), then today in IMSA, will operate two 911 GT3 R for the trios Romain Dumas – Mathieu Jaminet – Sven Müller (n°911), while Dirk Werner will be associated on the n°912 with Matt Campbell and Dennis Olsen.

This official presence will be supplemented in particular by the copy of Competition Motorsports, where we will find the Frenchman Kévin Estre.
