After announcing the line-ups for its No. 32 and No. 46 cars earlier, WRT has announced two more, bringing its entries to four for the entire season in GT World Challenge Europe.

The Belgian team's No. 4 BMW M3 GT30 will be entrusted to two young drivers in the Sprint Cup. The vice-champion ELMS 2021 in LM P3 category with COOL Racing, Niklas Kruetten (20 years old), will be associated with Calan Williams (22 years old), who played in Formula 2 with Trident last season. They will be joined by the Frenchman Jean-Baptiste Simmenauer in Endurance Cup

The Habs will be associated with his compatriot Thomas Neubauer in the Sprint Cup in the No. 31 WRT in the Pro category. In Endurance, it will be in the hands of the British Adam Carroll, Lewis Proctor and Tim Whale.

« I am very happy to add two superb crews to Team WRT's entry for Fanatec GT, declares Vincent Vosse, team principal of Team WRT. We're going to be fighting in different classes, which is great, and we're up for the challenge against some really strong competition. As always, we mixed youth and experience, with talent as the common denominator. I am happy to welcome Calan and Niklas to the team, whose experience with the BMW M4 GT3 accumulated last year will be very useful. I am also very happy to see Thomas and Jean-Baptiste continue with us and move up to the Pro class. It's equally nice to have Lewis and welcome Tim and Adam, who have done a great job together in GT4. Tim has already made a successful debut with us in Dubai and probably few people remember that also Adam, who made a successful appearance with the WRT team in the past. Now we are in full gear to attack the 2023 season. »
