The 2025 Nürburgring 24 Hours was just the perfect race for the 280.000 spectators (+50K comparing to last year) with sun, cool night and a thrilling battle between Manthey' EMA’s Porsche and ROWE Racing BMW who finished within 22 seconds after 24 hours racing.

ROWE Racing’s #98 BMW wins

Kudos to Augusto Farfus, Jesse Krohn, Raffaele Marciello and Kelvin van der Linde who drove faultless during 24 hours in the 162 curves, 20.832 kilometres “Green Hell” passing more than 100 cars almost every two or three laps offering BMW Motorsport its 21st victory at the 2025 N24 with the ROWE Racing’s #98 BMW M4 GT3 EVO.

It was also BMW’s fourth straight IGTC triumph and second of the season after Van der Linde and Farfus won at Bathurst.

Despite crossing checkered flag 22 seconds behind the “Grello”, the ROWE Racing’s #98 BMW M4 GT3 EVO wins the 53rd 24 Hours of Nürburgring with a 1:17.810 gap with the Manthey EMA’s Porsche.

Manthey EMA ‘Grello’ second

Kevin Estre, in the #911 Manthey' EMA’s Porsche, took the checkered flag with a 22-second gap to the #98 but the 24 hours continuous (almost) leading Porsche 911 GT3 R (992) was dropped down to second after a 100-second penalty for a collision with the #179 Doerr Motorsport Aston Martin Vantage GT4 was applied.

The #911 Manthey' EMA’s Porsche 911 GT3 R (992) started on pole and led the vast majority of laps after Saturday’s restart until Sunday lunchtime when Farfus passed Ayhancan Güven. Estre eventually took the lead back later on.

#54 Dinamic’s Porsche third

Dinamic’s Porsche didn’t have the pace of the two leading contenders but crucially enjoyed a relatively drama-free 24 hours en route to third in the hands of Matteo Cairoli, Bastian Buus, Joel Sturm and Loek Hartlog.
