Nürburg. 24 hours and over 130 racing cars on the 25.378-kilometre Nürburgring: the MINI John Cooper Works and Bulldog Racing cockpit for the 2025 24-hour race in the ‘Green Hell’ is manned by four excellent racing professionals. Among them: True Nürburgring connoisseurs and young talents:
-
Samantha Tan (CAN) is a champion racing driver and
team owner of ‘Samantha Tan Racing’ at just 27 years old. Her
involvement as a driver for MINI John Cooper Works and Bulldog
Racing is a spectacular premiere at the 24 Hours Race at the
Nürburgring. Tan has celebrated international sporting successes in
the 24H Series, the 12H Mugello, GT World Challenge America and GT
World Challenge Europe. With hundreds of thousands of global fans
and followers, she is an idol inspiring the next generation to chase
their dreams fearlessly. Her expansive experience in challenging
endurance races provides the perfect conditions for the Canadian to
compete in this year's 24 Hours Race at the Nürburgring.
-
Markus Fischer (AUT) could achieve his second
consecutive class victory in the ‘Green Hell’ after 2024. Fischer
set the fastest lap in his team in the #317 MINI John Cooper Works
Pro in 2024. The 24 Hours Race is always a ‘highlight of the season’
for the Austrian.
-
Sebastian Sauerbrei (GER) knows the Nürburgring and
the 24 Hours Race like no other - even in challenging conditions.
His experience, which he has gained on many test kilometres on the
race track, should pay off again this year for the experienced
racing driver and the MINI and Bulldog Racing team.
- Toby Goodman (GBR) can already look back on impressive successes at the age of 23 - including at the Nürburgring. He started his racing career at the age of ten. In his racing debut, Goodman drove to a sensational third place in the MINI Challenge Trophy in 2018. Since then, the Brit has regularly secured coveted podium finishes, including in the challenging endurance series.
