McLaren 720S GT3 to join GT World Challenge Europe

The McLaren 720S GT3 will join the grid with Jenson Team Rocket RJN, after the British team confirmed its entry into the GT World Challenge Europe powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) for the 2020 season.

The team, established by 2009 Formula One World Champion Jenson Button, will take on the full five-date Endurance Cup calendar including one round of the Intercontinental GT Challenge, the Total 24 Hours of Spa. The driver lineup for the season will be confirmed in the coming weeks.

The 2019 season saw Jenson Team Rocket RJN debut in the GT World Challenge Europe powered by AWS - formerly the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup - debuting at the season-opener in Monza and taking a season-best fourth-place finish in the Silver Cup at the Total 24 Hours of Spa.

This announcement sees Jenson Team Rocket RJN as the latest team to join McLaren Customer Racing, switching to the 720S GT3. The latest GT3 racecar from McLaren enters its second competitive season in 2020, contesting the GT World Challenge Europe for the first time.

The first round of the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup takes place in Monza, Italy, from 17 to 19 April 2020.
