Brendon Leitch and Tim Miles will once again share a Melbourne Performance Centre-prepared Audi for this year’s GT World Challenge Australia powered by AWS season.
The Kiwi duo will once again share an Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo II entered under the ‘Dayle ITM Team MPC’ banner for the six-round series, which kicks off in April at Phillip Island.
Leitch and Miles finished sixth in last year’s standings, scoring a single win at Phillip Island, and both are confident of a strong showing again this year.
“It’s great to be back for 2025 with Tim and the MPC team,” said Leitch. “We really proved ourselves as contenders last year. There were a few errors that cost us, but all of that can be forgotten now. All we can do is concentrate on what’s ahead.
“Tim was super fast last year. Having a strong Am is crucial to being a contender and he proved to be one of the best. And with some of the work that has been done in the off-season, I have no doubt that we’ll be contenders again.”
Miles added: “We’re back with the same car, same sponsors, same team and we’re looking forward to it.
“We were fast last year, but we had a few too many errors. There was the pit lane error speeding at Bathurst, at Phillip Island we had second place that became fourth after a yellow flag penalty – so we just lost too many points.
“The good thing was that the speed was there, particularly from Brendon, so I have no doubt that we should be challenging towards the front.”
