Falken Revises Driver Crew for Two-Car Porsche Effort

Falken Motorsports has unveiled a revamped squad of eight drivers that will pilot its pair of Porsche 911 GT3 Rs at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, with reigning Nürburgring 24 winner Dennis Marschall among the new signings.

Marschall, reigning 24 Hours of Le Mans LMGT3 class winner Morris Schuring and Porsche Motorsport Asia Pacific selected driver Dorian Boccolacci are the new names to have joined the Schnabl Engineering-run squad and will all make their team debuts this season.

They join in place of Klaus Bachler, who will tackle a full season IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship with AO Racing, as well as Joel Eriksson and Martin Ragginger, who have all left the program.

The remaining driver crew consists of Porsche Penske Motorsport LMDh racer Julien Andlauer, Tim Heinemann, Alessio Picariello, Sven Mueller and Nico Menzel.

The exact composition of the driver pairings across the two cars will be revealed at a later date.

The pair of Falken Porsches are set to tackle all but two of the scheduled NLS rounds, with the season kicking off on March 22.

The team will then also be on the grid for the blue riband N24 event, which is held on June 21-22 and forms the second round of the Intercontinental GT Challenge season.
