Team Parker Bentley to Return to 24H Dubai

Team Parker Racing will enter a single-car Bentley effort in next month’s Michelin 24H Dubai, it has been confirmed.

The British squad is set to field the No. 31 Bentley Continental GT3 in the Middle Eastern enduro for the second consecutive year as part of an expansive GT3 category expected for the event.

Shaun and Maxwell Lynn, the father and younger brother of Cadillac Hypercar driver Alex Lynn, will share the car with touring car stalwart Rob Huff and Scott Malvern.

The team has opted for a largely unchanged lineup compared to its first Dubai outing last year, with Malvern replacing Joe Wheeler the only change.

Malvern previously joined Team Parker Racing to race its Bentley during the 2020 British GT Championship, taking a race victory at Donington Park.

The British squad is one of the very few teams to still campaign the Continental GT3, which gradually fell out of favor after the brand closed down its GT3 program at the end of 2021.

Parker’s entry into next month’s 20th edition of the 24H Dubai will mark only the fourth race start for a Continental GT3 in Michelin 24H Series competition, following on from Team Parker’s previous Dubai start and two appearances for BoDa by Bas Koeten Racing in 2022.
