With a second and a third place, Manthey EMA can look back on two successful four-hour races at the 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers. Thomas Preining and Ayhancan Güven collected valuable race kilometres in consistently sunny as well as day and night conditions in preparation for the endurance season highlight in the Green Hell on 1 June 2024. 

Manthey EMA presented the new driver line-up for the 2024 season for the first time during the DTM Test and Media Days at the Hockenheimring. The two Porsche 911 GT3 R with starting numbers 90 and 91 collected important test kilometres on the 4.574-kilometre track, which will also host the season finale this year.

Manthey EMA has made a successful start to the 2024 season on the Nordschleife, crowning an already successful first race weekend in the Eifel with victory in the second round of the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS). On Saturday, Kévin Estre and Laurens Vanthoor placed the Grello Porsche 911 GT3 R with starting number 911 in second place in the NLS 1.  

Manthey EMA will field a Grello Porsche in the 2024 24 Hours of the Nürburgring. Porsche drivers Kévin Estre, Laurens Vanthoor, Thomas Preining and Ayhancan Güven will pilot the car with starting number 911. 

The two Porsche 911 GT3 R entered by Manthey finished the first race of the FIA WEC Endurance Championship in first and fifteenth place in the LMGT3 class.
