Engstler Motorsport has a long history in the ADAC GT Masters. The team lined up in the series in 2011 and 2012, winning the Drivers title and finishing runner-up in the Team competition in 2011. After a brief break, the team returned to the ADAC’s GT3 series in 2023. Since last season, Liqui Moly Team Engstler Motorsport has run the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo 2. The team finished on the podium in Zandvoort and was runner-up in the Pro-AM Cup.

Tim Hütter is set to contest his second season in the ADAC GT Masters. This year, he will be supported by Austrian Formula 1 legend Franz Tost. He had his first taste of GT3 racing in 2025 and is now ready for his first full season. Team-mate Ethan Brown was born in Singapore, but moved to Australia with his family in 2019 to pursue a future in motorsport. As a male citizen of Singapore, Brown had to hit pause on his career for two years, while he completed the military service that is mandatory in his country. He will be the first competitor from Singapore in the history of the ADAC GT Masters.

Switzerland’s Felix Hirsiger made a guest start at the Red Bull Ring last season. With multiple titles in national and international one-make cups, he has made quite a name for himself on the motorsport scene. He will share the Lamborghini with Finn Zulauf. The 21-year-old secured two pole positions, one race win and a further podium finish in his debut season in 2025.

John Paul Southern is another familiar face in the ADAC GT Masters. The American started a total of six races in the ADAC’s GT3 series in 2023 and 2025, claiming three top-ten results during that time. Then too, he shared the cockpit with Jonas Karklys. The 36-year-old from Lithuania lined up with Liqui Moly Team Engstler Motorsport in the ADAC GT Masters in 2023. Karklys has two podiums to his name and finished runner-up in the Pro-AM Cup in 2025.

“We are very proud to be able to field such a strong and ambitious driver line-up this year. In recent years, we have learned a lot about the Lamborghini. We now want to take what we have learned and implement it as well as possible in a race situation,” says managing director Franz Engstler.
