Le Mans class winner and sports car champion, Nico Prost joins Ginetta, racing with Toro Verde in the G56 GT3 Cup Car at the Hankook 24h Dubai.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ginetta are continuing their development of the G56 GT3 Cup car in the CREVENTIC winter series, racing in 6h Abu Dhabi<\/a> and the rescheduled Hankook 24h Dubai<\/a> 26-28 January, the latter including a 4th driver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last time out, the Toro Verde run Ginetta team of Lawrence Tomlinson, Freddie Tomlinson and Mike Simpson achieved a debut win in the GTX class at the 12H Kuwait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words from the team<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Joining the team for the 24h Dubai is Nico Prost. Nico said, \u2018I am really delighted to join Ginetta for the 24 hours of Dubai. It will be great racing with Lawrence, Freddie and Mike. It\u2019s been a long time since my last 24 hour race but I am really motivated. I will prepare very hard for it as we want to get a great result there.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nico has a wealth of experience in endurance racing. He’s contested Le Mans multiple times and winning the LMP1 privateer class at Le Mans in 2014.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mike Simpson said of Nico joining the team, \u2018We\u2019re excited to have Nico with us. He\u2019s achieved a lot in motorsport, particularly with our French partners CMR whom we recently launched a GT Academy race series with. His endurance racing experience makes him the perfect choice to fill that fourth seat in Dubai. We’re certain he’ll help us with the development of the Cup car.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
