The new Toyota Supra, which was tested in the VLN Endurance Championship in the last race of 2018 at the end of October, will enter the 2019 Nürburgring 24h to race in class SP8T. Gazoo Racing will lead the mission, the selected drivers will be Masahiro Sasaki, Uwe Kleen, Herwig Daenens und Hisahi Yabuki.

Gazoo Racing will deploy again in the SP-Pro category the Lexus LC Gt3, too. Drivers line up will be Naoya Gamou, Takamitsu Matsui, Yuichi Nakayama, and Takeshi Tsuchiya. This years goal will be to finish the 24h race.
