“I am looking forward to taking on this challenge, rejoices Elton Julian, founder and director of the DragonSpeed ​​team. GT3 is something we've been aiming for since its inception as GT's premier class, and thanks to Henrik, we'll be joining the fray sooner than expected. No one can underestimate the competition at this level and the learning curve will be steep. Returning to the Ferrari fold fills me with a personal nostalgia that goes back to my days driving the 333 SP in the 1990s, and allows us to align our team with what we consider to be the best and most major brand in the category. »
