Bentley to return to race track

British car brand Bentley "will return to the racetrack with a GT car in '14 as Volkswagen, which owns the brand, restructures its GT involvement." Volkswagen "has already three of its brands competing in the FIA GT3 series," Porsche, Lamborghini and Audi. In '14 a fourth one will follow as Volkswagen "prepares the return of Bentley to the racetrack."

Research & Development Head Wolfgang Durheimer, who is charge of Volkswagen’s motorsport activities, said, "We will present ourselves in GT racing with Bentley starting in 2014." Bentley's last motorsport involvement was in '03 when it won the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. Durheimer added, "The brand has celebrated numerous victories in motorsports, not only the overall victory in Le Mans in '03." Motorsport-Total.com
