    Bentley has confirmed a return to the 2016 Pirelli World Challenge championship campaign with Absolute Racing, with at least two Bentley Continental GT3s.


    At least two Bentley Continental GT3s will enter the 2016 Pirelli World Challenge as Bentley Team Absolute announces a programme including entries from young American rising star Andrew Palmer and one of Asia's top sportscar drivers, Adderly Fong.

    The Pirelli World Challenge is a 20-round GT championship comprising 50-minute long, single-driver races on eleven of America's most historic and iconic race tracks, including Laguna Seca and Road America. The Continental GT3 has taken race wins in the championship this year and Bentley Team Absolute is looking to continue the race car's success in the States.

    The campaign will run alongside the team's GT Asia Series programme, in which it aims to retain its teams' championship-winning title while claiming the drivers' championship title.

    While the two-car programme is confirmed, the team is in talks with several drivers regarding a third entry. The Pirelli World Challenge kicks off at the Circuit of the Americas on 3rd March 2016.
