BMW Motorsport presented its motor sports program for 2016 during its tradition season review held at the BMW Museum in Munich late last year. Aside from their commitment in the DTM, this year’s other big story is set to be the debut of the BMW M6 GT3 and BMW M6 GTLM. BMW’s latest figurehead on the GT racing scene will go head-to-head with top-class opposition in GT racing series and endurance classics in Europe, as well as with teams and manufacturers in North America in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship (WTSCC). The BMW M6 GT3 will also be in action in Asia and Australia.
While BMW Sports Trophy teams all over the world will once again do battle for race wins, titles and points towards the driver and team competitions, the re-aligned BMW Motorsport Junior program enters its third year. BMW Brand Ambassador Alessandro Zanardi has one major goal in his sights for 2016: the Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
