Forsetti Commits Pair Of New Vantage GT4s To British GT

Forsetti Motorsport, an Aston Martin partner team based at Snetterton Circuit in Norwich, has officially announced a two-car entry for the British GT Championship in 2024 with the new Vantage GT4 platform.

After taking delivery of its new cars earlier this month, the team has already been putting it through its paces at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia as part of preparations for their inaugural British GT campaign.

Despite only launching in November of last year, they have wasted no time in quickly assembling a top team to help them realise their ambition of winning the GT4 PRO/AM and outright GT4 victory within their first season with the series, recruiting some of the brightest minds in the sport with CV’s that span across IMSA, WEC, ELMS and Formula 1 to name but a few, to help realise this lofty ambition.

Of the two cars entered in the series, one will compete for Silver / Silver honours, and the other in the PRO/AM category. The Silver / Silver class car will be piloted by Mikey Porter & Jamie Day, who together will make one of the youngest driver pairings in British GT history.

The duo are currently competing together in the GT4 Winter Series Championship and have showed impressive form, achieving a 100% podium rate, and a sizeable points lead in both the drivers and teams championships – showcasing their impressive talents ahead of what will no doubt be an action packed season.

“I’m looking forward to kicking off our British GT campaign with the new car,” Day said. “Working with the team over the past few weeks competing in Spain & Portugal, I know we have what it takes to compete for wins and the overall title, and I cant wait to get started.

The second car from the Norfolk based squad will be piloted by Marc Warren and William Orton. With both drivers possessing an impressive CV with multiple wins and titles behind them, they complete the teams star line up for their debut season in British GT.

“I’m excited to take the step up to British GT with Forsetti Motorsport,” said Orton. “The team have an incredible mission, and I’m excited to play my part along with Marc, hopefully securing as many podiums and wins as we can along the way.”
