The final round of the FIA World Endurance Championship sees Proton Competition head to the Middle East for the 8 Hours of Bahrain (6 to 8 November). The Ummendorf-based team will be aiming to carry their recent momentum into the season finale and sign off 2025 on a high note.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bahrain International Circuit presents a unique challenge, with dusty conditions placing heightened emphasis on tyre management. With the race running into the night, drivers will need to be precise and consistent as track evolution becomes a decisive factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repeat performances are also the order of the day in the LMGT3 class with its pair of Ford Mustang LMGT3 entries. For Dennis Olsen \u2013 driver of the #88 car alongside Giammarco Levorato and Stefano Gattuso \u2013 Bahrain represents an opportunity to extract the maximum from every aspect of the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m very much looking forward to Bahrain. I\u2019m really hoping that we can execute perfectly once again, similar to Fuji, and be a little more fortunate. We were definitely in contention for a win there and showing that the potential in the car is really good. We are confident that we are capable of having a strong weekend and can leave Bahrain with a win.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the #77 car, Ben Tuck, Ben Barker and Bernardo Sousa will again be teaming up and aiming to make the most of the season finale. \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to getting out in the Ford Mustang LMGT3 for the final time this year,\u201d said Tuck. \u201cWe have the hard compound tyres for this last round, which seemed to work well for us in COTA.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The eight-hour race goes green at 14:00 local time (12:00 CET) on Saturday 8 November. Fans can follow all the action on Eurosport and FIAWEC.tv<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
