Giacomo and Giovanni Altoe will team up aboard a Dragon Racing-run Ferrari 296 GT3 in next month’s Gulf 12 Hours.

The two brothers will share the car with Ferrari Challenge racer Oscar Ryndziewcz, the founder of sportswear brand DFYNE, with the entry set to be run under the DFYNE by Dragon banner.

While Ryndziewcz makes his GT3 debut, the two Altoe brothers have extensive GT racing experience, with Giacomo most notably having competed with DragonSpeed in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship this past season.

The 25-year-old played a part in the Elton Julian-led squad’s GTD Pro title bid with a class win at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park and was named as part of the team’s lineup for its Corvette GTD program earlier this month.

While not as experienced in GT3 competition as his younger brother, Giovanni Altoe has competed extensively in TCR racing, as well as Porsche Carrera Cup Italia and even the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series.
