Munich. The partnership between Jake Dennis (GBR) and BMW M Motorsport is entering the next round. The reigning Formula E World Champion returns as the 23rd member of the works driver line-up and will compete in selected races in the BMW M4 GT3 in 2024. Dennis has been part of the BMW M Motorsport family since 2021.
Jake Dennis has already completed his first race of the year for BMW M Motorsport in April, when he competed with Century Motorsport at the season opener of the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe powered by AWS Endurance Cup at Le Castellet (FRA). Dennis will compete in further endurance races in the BMW M4 GT3 in the second half of the season for the British team. Dennis will have to miss the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps (BEL), as the race clashes with his main programme in Formula E.
Dennis's next race in the BMW M4 GT3 is already scheduled for 1st/2nd June. He will start alongside Jens Klingmann (GER) for BMW Italia Ceccato Racing in the Italian GT Championship. There, he will substitute for Max Hesse (GER), who will be competing in the 24 Hours at the Nürburgring (GER) at the same time.
Comments:
Andreas Roos (Head of BMW M Motorsport): “I am very pleased to have Jake Dennis back in our works driver line-up. He is a great racing driver, versatile – exactly what we need for our very extensive racing programme. In GT cars, Jake Dennis is always a top-notch option, and as a Formula E World Champion, he has also gained a lot of experience in other areas of motorsport.”
Jake Dennis: “I am very excited to continue my journey as a BMW M works driver. We have had a great partnership since 2021. I am really looking forward to the races that are still to come this season. Hopefully, we can fight for victories and podium finishes.”
