With the ADAC 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers, the Porsche Endurance Trophy Nürburgring (PETN) had two more races on the programme for the season as part of the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS). For the first time, the two preparatory races for the Nürburgring 24 Hours counted as part of the NLS and were therefore also counted for the classifications in the PETN. 

With a second and a third place, Manthey EMA can look back on two successful four-hour races at the 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers. Thomas Preining and Ayhancan Güven collected valuable race kilometres in consistently sunny as well as day and night conditions in preparation for the endurance season highlight in the Green Hell on 1 June 2024. 

Manthey EMA presented the new driver line-up for the 2024 season for the first time during the DTM Test and Media Days at the Hockenheimring. The two Porsche 911 GT3 R with starting numbers 90 and 91 collected important test kilometres on the 4.574-kilometre track, which will also host the season finale this year.

The Porsche Endurance Trophy Nürburgring (PETN) kicked off the new season on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife with a double-header as part of the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS). The first two races each covered a distance of four hours on the 24.358-kilometre combination of the Nürburgring Grand Prix circuit and the Nordschleife.

Manthey EMA has made a successful start to the 2024 season on the Nordschleife, crowning an already successful first race weekend in the Eifel with victory in the second round of the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS). On Saturday, Kévin Estre and Laurens Vanthoor placed the Grello Porsche 911 GT3 R with starting number 911 in second place in the NLS 1.
