Michelin commits to SUPER GT’s GT300 class after GT500 exit
Earlier this year, Michelin announced that it would no longer supply tires to GT500 after the 2023 season, but it remained unclear whether they would continue supplying GT300 teams. However, it has now been confirmed that Michelin has recruited at least one additional team for the 2024 season. While the identity of the team has not been officially announced, Shade Racing is rumored to be one of the teams switching to Michelin from Dunlop. It is also expected that Bridgestone will supply tires to the two NISMO-run GT500 cars in 2024. BMW Team Studie driver Bruno Spengler expressed his desire to continue racing in SUPER GT next year, and he is pleased that Michelin will remain in GT300. Seiji Ara, Spengler’s teammate, is currently in second place in the championship standings heading into the final two rounds of the season. D’station has also revealed their plans to return to SUPER GT in 2024.
