Adam Christodoulou defending 24-hour race title with same team
Adam Christodoulou will defend his historic victory at the Nürburgring 24 Hours with the same winning team.
The Lichfield star will mark his second year as an official AMG driver by rejoining Mercedes-AMG Team Black Falcon.
The 28-year-old became only the fourth British driver to win the twice-around-the-clock classic last year as the new Mercedes-AMG GT3 swept the top four positions around the fearsome 15.1-mile Nordschleife circuit.
Christodoulou will be reunited with two of his winning co-drivers from last year aboard the No 4 Mercedes-AMG GT3, with Maro Engel and Manuel Metzger being joined by experienced Dutchman, Yelmer Buurmann.
He also took part in Saturday's opening VLN Endurance Championship at the Nürburgring to continue working on the car's set-up in preparation for the 24-hour race.
"A few bits on the Nordschleife have changed due to the resurfacing work they've done there," he said. "I would advise everybody that the Nürburgring is the best circuit in the world and everyone should race there if they get the opportunity.
"It's become like a second home for me, so I'm excited to be back amongst it and hopefully show everybody last year wasn't a one off.
"We've got more knowledge of what the car is capable of now."
