NÜRBURGRING, GERMANY – Technical gremlins dogged Oman Racing by Century Motorsport all week, but Ahmad Al Harthi, Calan Williams and Javier Sagrera still brought the No.42 BMW M4 GT3 EVO home fifth in the Bronze Cup in Round 4 of the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup on 30 August.
It was the team’s second-best result of 2026 and pulled the trio back into the top 10 of the Bronze Cup standings after a mid-race retirement at the 24 Hours of Spa.
Race recap
Sagrera set the team’s best qualifying lap, a 1:55.188, putting the car on the fifth row of the Bronze grid. Al Harthi took the opening stint, ran slightly wide at Turn 1 to avoid contact ahead, and worked up to fourth as the first stops played out before the first driver change early in hour two.
Williams briefly led the class during the pit cycle, and Sagrera held fifth to the flag after a penalty for a rival.
Al Harthi called fifth a very strong outcome given the problems the team faced in the build-up, and said the crew still had to pin down the issues before the finale at Portimão on 17 October.
