Aston Martin Fielding Three Cars at 24 Hours of Nurburgring

Aston Martin is taking three cars to this year’s 24 Hour of Nurburgring endurance race, including a hydrogen-powered Rapide S.

Aside from its innovative hydrogen race car, Aston is bringing a V12 Vantage GT3 along with a close-to-production specification V12 Vantage. The last time the brand won the race was all the way back in 1959.

This year’s race will mark the first time that a hybrid-hydrogen powered car will compete in an international racing event. It will have a team of four drivers, one of which will be the CEO of Aston Martin himself, Dr Ulrich Bez.
