Munich. The BMW M Motorsport works driver line-up for the 2024 season has been confirmed. A total of 22 top-rated drivers from twelve nations will be racing around the world as BMW M works drivers. Raffaele Marciello (SUI) and Robin Frijns (NED) are the two top-quality newcomers. The North American works drivers Bill Auberlen, Robby Foley and Madison Snow (all USA) are also fixtures in the line-up for 2024.
Having recorded numerous successes in endurance racing and titles in a number of race series, Marciello and Frijns are now joining BMW M Motorsport. In addition to battling for overall wins with the BMW M Hybrid V8 in the FIA World Endurance Championship, they will prove to be valuable additions in GT3 racing. This versatility is a defining feature of the whole line-up of BMW M works drivers.
Andreas Roos (Head of BMW M Motorsport): “In sporting terms, we have a top-notch, versatile and highly motivated line-up of BMW M works drivers as we look ahead to an extremely intensive season of motor racing in 2024. The total of 22 drivers may seem at first glance to be a large number, but each and every one will prove their worth in the extensive programme of events that we will be competing in around the globe. I am delighted that we have managed to add yet more quality to an already top-class squad, in the shape of top drivers such as Robin Frijns and Raffaele Marciello. As of this season, our North American works drivers Bill Auberlen, Robby Foley and Madison Snow are also now part of the regular line-up, underlining the importance of our involvement in the USA.”
