Max Verstappen’s long-awaited competitive GT3 debut has been confirmed, and will take place this weekend at the Nordschleife.<\/p>\n
After securing his Nordschleife racing license two weeks ago by taking part in a four-hour race with a scaled-back Porsche Cayman GT4 car, Verstappen will now put the official documentation use for the first time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The four-time world champion will compete in the ninth race of the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Series (NLS), competing in a Ferrari.<\/p>\n
Specifically, the Red Bull star will drive a Ferrari 296 GT3 car in the Verstappen.com Racing colours, run by Emil Frey Racing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to the official entry list, Verstappen will be partnered by Chris Lulham. The 27-year-old is expected to be in contention for victory, which would cement an unforgettable GT3 debut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Max Verstappen’s long-awaited competitive GT3 debut has been confirmed, and will take place this weekend at the Nordschleife.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":127827,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[572],"tags":[64,63,827,830,828,831,829,826,813,823,825,806,805,824,803,804,822,85],"class_list":["post-166370","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-motosport","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-daniel-ricciardo","tag-f1-calendar","tag-f1-live","tag-f1-results","tag-f1-standings","tag-ferrari","tag-formula-1","tag-lewis-hamilton","tag-max-verstappen","tag-motor","tag-motor-sports","tag-motorsport","tag-motosport","tag-motosports","tag-racing","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/166370","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=166370"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/166370\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/127827"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=166370"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=166370"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=166370"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
