“It will be my second time at Spa, I enjoyed it last year and it is fantastic to be back 𝔍again. 

“The level is so high, wit𒁃h the best drivers and cars in the world. I preferred the older date,✃ but it doesn’t change much.

“We are in good shape, we were quite fast in the tests and we have a strong line-up. We’re ready to give the maxim🌊um☂.”

Team Principal Vincent Vosse said: “Spa comes earlier this year꧒ and right after Le Mans, but it is always a great pleasure and a big responsibility to be part of this race which meansಞ so much to us. 

“We will have on track four cars, two in Pro and one each in th💛e Gold and Bronze classes, all seeking top honours. 

“The objective is to fight at the forefront, which is also what it is expected from us. It’s now eight years we haven’t won, we havജe been very close to a third win many times but eventually lacked that very little thing that makes the difference. 

“We hope to be luckier this time. After 13 participations, 🅷this will be the first defending the colours of BMW. I feel very proud to represent the manufacturer that is by far the one that has taken most wins at Spa.”
