Nürburg. 24 hours and over 130 racing cars on the 25.378-kilometre Nürburgring: the MINI John Cooper Works and Bulldog Racing cockpit for the 2025 24-hour race in the ‘Green Hell’ is manned by four excellent racing professionals. Among them: True Nürburgring connoisseurs and young talents:

• Samantha Tan (CAN) is a champion racing driver and team owner of ‘Samantha Tan Racing’ at just 27 years old. Her involvement as a driver for MINI John Cooper Works and Bulldog Racing is a spectacular premiere at the 24 Hours Race at the Nürburgring. Tan has celebrated international sporting successes in the 24H Series, the 12H Mugello, GT World Challenge America and GT World Challenge Europe. With hundreds of thousands of global fans and followers, she is an idol inspiring the next generation to chase their dreams fearlessly. Her expansive experience in challenging endurance races provides the perfect conditions for the Canadian to compete in this year's 24 Hours Race at the Nürburgring.
  
  
• Markus Fischer (AUT) could achieve his second consecutive class victory in the ‘Green Hell’ after 2024. Fischer set the fastest lap in his team in the #317 MINI John Cooper Works Pro in 2024. The 24 Hours Race is always a ‘highlight of the season’ for the Austrian.
  
  
• Sebastian Sauerbrei (GER) knows the Nürburgring and the 24 Hours Race like no other - even in challenging conditions. His experience, which he has gained on many test kilometres on the race track, should pay off again this year for the experienced racing driver and the MINI and Bulldog Racing team.
  
  
• Toby Goodman (GBR) can already look back on impressive successes at the age of 23 - including at the Nürburgring. He started his racing career at the age of ten. In his racing debut, Goodman drove to a sensational third place in the MINI Challenge Trophy in 2018. Since then, the Brit has regularly secured coveted podium finishes, including in the challenging endurance series.
