The single BMW at the 2019 Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup will be the #9 Boutsen Ginion in the Am Cup.
No entries in the 2019 Blancpain GT World Challenge Europe.

There is one thing that has disappeared, not just from Europe but from the entire world, is the idea of ever being embarrassed by anything. Still, BMW couldn't find a team to take the risk of failing against the best of the world in the GT3 class.
I wonder how many BMW M6 GT3 have been sold until today.

Word is Antonio Felix da Costa has departed BMW both in his formula E and sports car roles, supposedly in part down to the lack of high level Gt programme from BMW now the WEC programme is done.
Apparently he’s going to continue elsewhere in Formula E, wonder what kind of sports car programme he’ll pursue alongside it
He’s going to one of quite a few free agent GTE drivers in the off season!!!
I imagine it’d be a good idea for someone like Aston Martin to snap him up in advance of their hyper car entry

True , but the news stated that Gunther its very likely to replaced him in FE season partnering with Sims. If Gunther its replaced Da Costa in BMW FE , then he might have a chance to get DTM seat.

Apparently Da Costa is cutting ties with BMW entirely.

I fully understand , well I hoped Maximilian Gunther will be the perfect candidate to replaced da Costa , plus he can participate DTM race in next season if he has the chance. Plus he can speak fluent English , German , French and Spanish so its the good asset for the BMW FE and DTM team.

Good God, are they vacuuming the track with that gaping mouth? And then highlighted with the orange.
But yes, it does look the business

Looks more like a race car than the M8 did. I don't know if it's because of some more freedoms in GT3 vs GTE or if the M4 is better proportioned than the M8.
Oddly, the road car M4 (112.2 in) and road car M8 (111.1 in) have similar wheelbases.

I REALLY like that M4. But I'm also partial to the dazzle camo liveries, so I may be unfairly giving it credit. Looks far better than both the M6 and M8.
