BMW Team RLL will look to close the 2018 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and the inaugural season for the BMW M8 GTE with a third consecutive GTLM class victory, this time at the 21st annual Motul Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta (USA).

Following a win and double-podium finish at Virginia International Raceway (USA) in August and a second victory at the WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca (USA) last month the team is fully prepared for Petit Le Mans – an event they won last year in the final race for the BMW M6 GTLM. Bill Auberlen (USA) rejoins Alexander Sims (GBR) and Connor De Phillippi (USA) in the #25 BMW M8 GTE for the fourth time this season. Chaz Mostert (AUS) will co-drive with John Edwards (USA) and Jesse Krohn (FIN) in the #24 BMW M8 GTE. This weekend will also see BMW Team RLL complete its 10th season of racing with BMW.
