Hockenheim. Title celebrations for Schubert Motorsport after the 2024 DTM season finale at Hockenheim (GER). For the second time since 2022, the team, led by team principal Torsten Schubert, has been crowned champion in the team standings. To conclude the year, René Rast (GER) drove the #33 RoboMarkets BMW M4 GT3 to a third-place finish on the podium. Throughout the season, Rast, Sheldon van der Linde (RSA), and Marco Wittmann (GER) achieved a total of four victories and three additional podium finishes .

After 16 races, Schubert Motorsport has 361 points in the team standings, 35 more than the runner-up. In the driver standings, Rast finished the season in fourth place with two wins, one second place, one third place, and 172 points. Van der Linde, who finished ninth in the last race in his #31 Shell BMW M4 GT3, ended the season sixth in the driver standings, while Wittmann finished twelfth after crossing the line seventh in the #11 Schaeffler BMW M4 GT3 on Sunday at Hockenheim.

The final weekend was a reflection of a season with highs and lows. Once again, the qualifying issues that had accompanied Schubert Motorsport and the three BMW M works drivers throughout the year were evident. However, in the race, all three drivers made spectacular comebacks. Rast improved from eleventh on the grid to third place on Sunday, Wittmann drove from 19th to seventh, and van der Linde from 17th to ninth. Already on Saturday, Rast had gained nine places to finish seventh. Wittmann and van der Linde finished in ninth and eleventh places, respectively.

Munich. After six successful years together, the partnership between BMW M Motorsport and BMW M works driver Nick Yelloly (GBR) came to an end with the conclusion of the IMSA season last weekend at Road Atlanta (USA). Memorable achievements include victories at the 24-hour races at the Nürburgring (GER) in 2020 and Spa-Francorchamps (BEL) in 2023. Yelloly was also at the helm for the historic first win of the BMW M Hybrid V8 in 2023 at Watkins Glen (USA). The Petit Le Mans was his last race before he takes on new challenges starting in 2025. BMW M Motorsport thanks a great professional and wishes him all the best for the future.


In 2019, Nick Yelloly joined BMW M Motorsport and immediately celebrated success at the wheel of the BMW M6 GT3. Together with the FIST-Team AAI, he became the driver and team champion in the China GT Championship. Alongside Walkenhorst Motorsport, he won the qualifying race for the 24 Hours of the Nürburgring (GER). A year later, he achieved his first major triumph on the big stage, winning the 24-hour race for ROWE Racing alongside Nick Catsburg (NED) and Alexander Sims (GBR). In 2021, as the defending champion in the “Green Hell”, he secured the prestigious pole position in top qualifying.

Road Atlanta. What a dramatic season finale of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship! The Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta (USA) really picked up speed in the last of ten racing hours, giving BMW M Team RLL an emotional rollercoaster. Philipp Eng (AUT), Jesse Krohn (FIN), and Augusto Farfus (BRA) were in contention for a podium finish thanks to a late safety car phase. However, a tyre failure just before the end dropped the trio to fourth place. Paul Miller Racing and the driver trio of Madison Snow, Bryan Sellers, and Neil Verhagen (all USA) secured the title in the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup with a seventh-place finish in the GTD PRO class .

The #24 BMW M Hybrid V8, the winning car from the IMSA race in Indianapolis (USA) a few weeks ago, started from ninth position and fell out of the lead lap in the early hours due to a collision for which they were not at fault. It was only in the last hour of the race that the car managed to get back on the lead lap during a safety car phase. Final driver Eng found himself in third position with the leading duo right in front of him. However, instead of being able to challenge for a second consecutive win, he had to pit again due to a slow puncture. His lead over the pursuers was large enough that he was able to finish in fourth place. A good result, but more could have been possible.

The sister car, number 25, had a strong start from third place in the early stages. However, after about four hours, the race was over for Connor De Phillippi (USA), Nick Yelloly (GBR), and Maxime Martin (BEL) due to a technical problem with the fuel supply.
