OUR DRIVERS

Eleven riders, seven nations, one goal:
With precision, passion and fighting spirit.

ROWE RACING relies on BMW M Motorsport works drivers

In the 2022 season, eleven BMW M Motorsport works drivers from seven nations will be competing for ROWE RACING on the Nürburgring Nordschleife (NBR) and in the GT World Challenge Europe (GTWCE). Victories in the major 24-hour classics at the Nürburgring, Spa and Daytona are on their list of achievements, as are title wins in the DTM, IMSA and the FIA GT World Cup. Then there is the BMW Junior Team, which is taking in the GTWCE the next step in its career in the year of the 50th anniversary of BMW M.
