Defending a victory at the historic Nürburgring Nordschleife is one of the toughest challenges in global motorsport. This May 16 17, ROWE Racing takes on the 54th running of the ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring with one ultimate target: back to back victories. In front of a record breaking crowd of 352,000 passionate fans, the team unleashes two upgraded BMW M4 GT3 EVO against the best endurance racing teams in the world. After 24 hours of relentless, high octane drama through the Green Hell, ROWE Racing showcases incredible grit to bring home a phenomenal 4th place overall finish.
Push to the Limit: The #99 Crew Claims P4
The star performer of the weekend was the #99 BMW M4 GT3 EVO. Driven by a world class lineup Dan Harper, Max Hesse, Sheldon van der Linde, and Dries Vanthoor, the car stayed in the hunt from the green flag. As mechanical failures and heavy crashes eliminated top contenders throughout the night, the #99 crew drove a flawless, calculated race, securing ROWE Racing’s best finish at the event since their 2021 runner up result.
Heartbreak for the #1 Defending Champions
ROWE Racing also fielded the highly anticipated #1 car, reuniting 2025 winners Augusto Farfus, Raffaele Marciello, and Kelvin van der Linde, alongside BMW newcomer Jordan Pepper. While the car showed incredible pace early on, it ultimately succumbed to the harsh realities of the grueling circuit, leaving the #99 sister car to carry the flag across the finish line.
The Road Ahead
With a hard earned P4 trophy, ROWE Racing proves once again that they belong at the absolute pinnacle of endurance racing. The team leaves the Eifel region proud of their resilience and fully focused on reclaiming the crown next year.
