Overview

  • The four-time F1 champion is expected to race Saturday’s NLS7 for Lionspeed GP in a Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 CS configured to Permit-B rules.
  • Power will be limited to a little over 300 PS to meet the entry-stage performance cap, leaving him unable to chase class wins or lap records.
  • Permit A requires a DMSB Academy course, two classified results that can be achieved via a double-start, at least 14 racing laps, and a minimum 20% driving share.
  • His name is absent from the preliminary entry list as his management tries to limit attention, yet organizers have confirmed full free livestream coverage of the event.
  • Ralf Schumacher called the lack of an exemption "peinlich," as Verstappen pursues eligibility for future GT3 races after a swift private GT3 test in May under the alias "Franz Hermann."
