Boutsen VDS

Qualifying done! ✅

With 55 cars on the grid at the Nürburgring, the competition is going to be tough. But with three hours ahead, there’s still a lot to play for.

#2 - P23 overall | Pro
Starting from the middle of the field, with plenty of time to move up through the pack. The pit stop strategy and traffic will be key, and we’ll be ready to make the most of every opportunity.

#10 - P13 overall | P4 Gold
A solid starting position for our Gold car, with the podium firmly in sight. Our three drivers will be pushing for it from lights out to the chequered flag.

Race starts at 15:00. Let’s see what three hours around the Green Hell can bring. 🇩🇪

Saturday done. Eyes forward. 👀

Our two Porsche 911 GT3 R put in two Free Practice in the Nürburgring for the GT World Challenge. Overall, a good progression during the day, despite a cloudy weather and some rain during the day!

Back to the Green Hell!🌳⛅

The 4th Endurance round of the GT World Challenge Europe season is calling, and after a summer break, our two Porsche 911 GT3 R are ready to get back to racing and fight at the front!

#2 - PRO : Alessio Picariello, Dorian Boccolacci & Morris Schuring
#10 - GOLD : Robin Knutsson, Gilles Magnus & Nico Menzel

Three hours of racing. One goal: fight for the podium. Let’s get this one, guys! 🦁

New face in the Porsche #10! 🇩🇪

We’re pleased to welcome Nico Menzel for the Nürburgring Endurance round of the GT World Challenge Europe, taking place 28–30 August 2026.

Due to a calendar clash with the GT World Challenge Asia event in Japan, Alessandro Ghiretti will unfortunately miss this round. We wish him the best of luck for his race in Japan!

Nico will step into the Porsche #10 alongside Robin Knutsson and Gilles Magnus in the Gold Cup. With his experience at the Nürburgring, we’re confident he’ll be a great addition to the line-up, and we hope to see the trio fighting for the podium in the 3-hour endurance race on Sunday at 3:00 PM.

The Porsche #2 Pro line-up remains unchanged, with Dorian Boccolacci, Alessio Picariello and Morris Schuring continuing their campaign together.

A new challenge, a familiar track and a strong line-up: we’re ready to go!

Welcome to the family, Nico! 🦁

Driven by passion 🦁🔥

Faces behind performance 🦁🔥

That's a wrap on our Magny-Cours weekend. 🇫🇷

Sunday didn't go quite as planned. Both our cars were caught in traffic during their qualifying hot laps, leaving us further down the grid than expected and making Race 2 an uphill battle from the very start.

Our Porsche #2 found itself right in the middle of fierce Pro-class fights but Alessio Picariello and Dorian Boccolacci delivered some great racing to finish P12. Our #10 suffered a small mistake at the start before serving a penalty during the race, limiting Robin Knutsson and Gilles Magnus to P24 overall and P5 in Gold Cup.

A Sunday to forget, but an amazing Saturday in the books ! We'll remember the incredible fights on track, Dorian Boccolacci and Alessio Picariello's fantastic comeback in Race 1, and above all, Robin and Gilles' brilliant Gold Cup victory on Saturday night! 🏆

Next stop: the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup returns in less than a month. See you at the Nürburgring for three hours of racing! 👊
