GT World Challenge Europe Headlines headed for Hockenheim

Bader Wurtemburg, Germany, and the fabled Hockenheimring, is the next venue for GT World Challenge Europe after the 24 Hours of Spa, with a return, for the Endurance Cup, to the more traditional 3-hour race format.  Here's the pre-race news headed into the weekend.

No Beechdean AMR Aston Martin for the final couple GTWC Europe races of 2022.  They will skip the final two races at Hockenheim and at Barcelona Catalunya in Spain and refocus to an original plan of racing in the Intelligent Money British GT Championship instead.

Beechdean AMR Withdraws from Remaining Endurance Rounds


Picariello Replaces Ledogar at Dinamic for Hockenheim


Emil Frey Adjusts Driver Lineup for Remaining Enduros


Attempto Signs Schramm to Pro Audi Lineup for Endurance


More news still to come as the weekend goes on, plus highlights of practice and qualifying, a race report, and of course, highlights of the race as well.  Stay tuned.


An IMSA news recap is coming up

Folks, there is a bunch of sports car racing coming up in the weeks ahead.  Yours truly is working as fast and hard as he can on updating it.  One of the things that I do want to accomplish, is a full recap of the Michelin GT Challenge from VIR via the official IMSA webpage.  That is coming.  Maybe, just maybe, it will be recapped next week, after the GTWC Europe event at Hockenheim in Germany.  Again, I keep saying it.  But it is true.  Stay tuned, everyone.  There's lots and lots to talk about.
