BRITISH GT
RAM Racing will switch to a BMW M4 GT3 in the British GT Championship this season as it retains Raffaele Marciello and John Ferguson in an unchanged driver line-up.
The Silverstone-based squad has used Mercedes machinery since it joined British GT in 2015, but that will change after a decade. During the off-season, Marciello – who is widely considered one of the top GT drivers in the world – moved from being a factory Mercedes driver to join the works BMW outfit and its line-up in the top-tier LMDh class of the World Endurance Championship.
“I’m really happy to be back in British GT with John and RAM Racing,” said Marciello, who made his British GT debut last year. “It’s a big year ahead, being my first as a BMW works driver, and there’s a lot to learn.
“It will be a big challenge for myself and the team to switch car from the Mercedes-AMG to the BMW M4 GT3, and to find the right set-ups for the tracks. We had a good season overall last year, and we already know the areas where we can improve, so I’m expecting big things for us in British GT this season.”
The BMW M4 also had success last term in British GT, with the same model winning the GT3 title in the hands of Dan Harper and Darren Leung. Ferguson, meanwhile, continues in British GT for a fourth successive season, his third in GT3, having taken a win at Snetterton and seventh in the 2023 standings.
