Three Brits were among the winning crew at the Dubai 24 Hours as BMW’s updated M4 GT3 Evo took victory in its first appearance. Darren Leung, Dan Harper and Ben Tuck were joined by Max Hesse and Al Faisal Al Zubair as WRT took its third win in four years at the race.
Leung doubled up – and impressively added a class win to go with his overall honours. He joined British IndyCar hopeful Toby Sowery, Ahmad Al Harthy and Simon Traves in a Century Motorsport-run BMW M4 GT3 Evo. The car finished fifth overall and first in GT3 AM.
Russian ex-F1 aces Vitaly Petrov and Sergey Sirotkin finished fourth in a Haupt Racing Mercedes; two-time WRC champion Kalle Rovanperä continued his circuit-racing education in a Proton Huber Porsche; and BTCC champion Jake Hill starred in Era Motorsport’s Ferrari 296 GT3.
