Aston Martin Racing tastes victory at FIA WEC 6 Hours of Nürburgring

• #98 GTE Am entry victorious in Germany
• 3rd place finish for #95 GTE Pro entry
• FIA World Endurance Championship finishes European season

Our partners Aston Martin Racing have achieved double podium success at the 6 Hours of Nürburgring, taking victory in the GTE Am class and 3rd in GTE Pro.

With conditions remaining dry throughout the fourth round of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC), the trio of Paul Dalla Lana (C), Pedro Lamy (P) and Mathias Lauda (A) drove a faultless race to bring their V8 Vantage GTE home in 1st.

Following a strong stint from Lauda which saw him claim both 2nd and 1st positions on track, the team ensured an unbroken lead for the final 3 hours of the race.

The result brings vital points for the teams GTE Am title challenge, before the WEC leaves Europe for the 6 Hours of Mexico.

In GTE Pro, the team enjoyed a strong points haul for its #95 V8 Vantage GTE entry with 3rd place. Despite Nicki Thiim (DN) and Marco Sørensen (DN) displaying a strong performance, a late full course yellow soon after their final pitstop allowed others to benefit from the slower track, dropping the crew to 3rd by the finish.

The #97 GTE Pro entry of Darren Turner (GB) and Richie Stanaway (NZ) finished the race in 5th place.

The FIA World Endurance Championship will return on 3rd September for the 6 Hours of Mexico following the summer break.
