Reigning FIA WEC LMGTE Am class champion TF Sport and fellow Aston Martin Racing partner teams NorthWest AMR and D’station Racing contested the 6 Hours of Portimão event on Sunday with a trio of Aston Martin Vantage GTEs.

The Vantage GTE is the prototype version of the British-built race car derived from Aston Martin’s critically-acclaimed ultra-luxury sportscar and shares the same aluminium body frame and a specially-tuned version of the four-litre V8 turbo-charged production engine.

Aston Martin is aiming for its first podium at Portimão on its final visit to the Portuguese track before the class switches to GT3 machinery in 2024.

Following the news on Volkswagen's GTD diesel hot-hatch, their iconic GTI has officially been announced and will make an appearance at the Geneva Motor Show.

Making it not only the most powerful Golf GTD and Golf 7 to date, but one of the most economical fast hatches as well.

The V60 also has stiffer springs, bushes, more suspension damping and a steering rack that is ten times faster than any Volvo. Advanced Stability Control with a new roll angle sensor helps to improve handling together with the Dynamic Stability and Traction Control.
