In the Spotlight

2024 Nürburgring 24h, Lamborghini Huracán GT3 evo2
The Nürburgring 24-hour race is very special because of the characteristics of the track, the ever changing weather and the huge grid. This year, because of the bad weather and thick fog the race was shortened to just under 7,5 hours running time. ABT is long term partner from Audi in DTM, but the German brand retreats from GT championships and no longer develops the R8 LMS or supports teams, so ABT turned to Lamborghini. The Red Bull Huracán finished 5th.
