Bentley Continental GT3 New Race Car
Bentley return to the racetrack for the first time since its historic sixth Le Mans victory in 2003, the Bentley Continental GT3 remains faithful to the company's founding motorsport philosophy of developing racing cars from their road-going counterparts.
The Continental GT3 concept capitalizes on the prodigious performance, outstanding high-speed stability and renowned durability of Bentley's iconic Continental GT Speed coupe, while tailoring its specification for the track with the adoption of a rear-wheel drive chassis in accordance with the regulations, state-of-the-art motorsport hardware and a comprehensive aerodynamic package.
With the Continental GT3 concept receiving the full support of the FIA, Bentley is returning to the motorsport arena towards the end of 2013 with a GT race car capable of competing with the very best, in the true Bentley tradition.
Development of the Continental GT3 will continue over the coming months in the build- up to the start of a test program in 2013 as it readies to race in a variety of events up to and including 24-hour marathons.
