Belgian outfit Team WRT has joined forces with Al Manar Racing for this weekend’s 24H Series Dubai 24 Hours.
The Belgian team will compete with a #777 BMW M4 GT3 for Al Faisal Al Zubair, Darren Leung, Ben Tuck, Dan Harper and Max Hesse under the Al Manar Racing by Team WRT banner.
It will be the team’s return to the Middle Eastern endurance race after it pulled out of the 2024 edition due to logistical issues caused by the event’s postponement.
“I am very happy to have Al Faisal with us and it’s a pleasure to start our collaboration at the Dubai 24 Hours,” said Vincent Vosse, Team WRT’s co-owner.
“I’ve always kept my eye on Al Manar Racing and I could see in the last few years that they have had a lot of success. It’s a new challenge for us and I’m really looking forward to the 2025 season with Team WRT representing Al Manar Racing.”
This is a significant new partnership for Al Manar Racing, which was previously associated with GetSpeed and Mercedes-AMG.
More news on this collaboration is expected soon, as Al Zubair teased a further announcement of Al Manar Racing’s full programme as part of this Dubai 24 reveal.
“I’m extremely excited to get this collaboration started between AlManar Racing & WRT alongside BMW M Motorsport,” he said.
“WRT’s exceptional record speaks for itself when it comes to positioning the team as one of the best, if not the best in the business.
“I’m excited to get it all started this weekend at the 24 Hours of Dubai in #777 BMW M4 GT3 Evo alongside Dan Harper, Max Hesse, Ben Tuck & Darren Leung.
“Stay tuned to hear the complete 2025 programme soon.”
