New for 2027
From 2027, VDS Motorsport races with two cars. Our BMW M240i Racing gets company from a Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport, built by Porsche Motorsport with a 3.8-litre flat-six behind the driver, 425 hp and a six-speed PDK gearbox.
The Porsche races in the PETN Cup 3 class of the NLS, one of the most competitive classes in the championship, as well as at the 24h Nürburgring and in the RCN. Both cars are run together with our regular partner Up2Race.
NLS 10, the season finale
On Saturday 10 October we race NLS 10, the final round of the 2026 NLS season. John van der Sanden, Jannik Reinhard and Ralf Bruckmann share our BMW M240i Racing #670, and we are aiming for the class victory.
The forecast points to rain, so it may well be a wet race. Qualifying starts at 8:30 and the four-hour race at 12:00. We post updates from the track on Instagram.
