Tigani Motorsport brings strong line-up for Gulf 12 Hours debut

Australian team Tigani Motorsport will participate in the 15th edition of the Gulf 12 Hours on 14 December at Yas Marina Circuit.

Tigani Motorsport has announced a strong driver lineup for its GT3 entry with a Mercedes-AMG GT3, combining established GT World Challenge Australia talent with a top international driver.

New Zealander Brendon Leitch joins the team for his debut in a Mercedes-AMG GT3. Mercedes-AMG Junior Driver Jayden Ojeda brings recent Pro-class experience in the Bathurst 12 Hour. Leitch and Ojeda will join the team's GT World Challenge Australia regulars Sergio Pires and Marcel Zalloua.

Team owner Nathan Tigani said: “We’re really looking forward to having Brendon as part of the Tigani line-up at the Gulf 12 Hours. He’s been one of the top Pro drivers to watch in GT World Challenge Australia, and we’ve seen enough to know he’ll fit right into the team and be quick straight away.

“Alongside Sergio, Marcel, and Jayden, we’re pretty excited about our chances of going to Abu Dhabi and coming home with some trophies.”
