Mr. Müller, how significant was the victory in the GT class at the Sebring 12-hour race?

Dirk Müller: “This race is simply fantastic and, apart from the Indy500, is possibly the most important motorsport event in North America. Sebring is also a very important fixture on the ALMS calendar, as more points are on offer there than at the other races. It was great to start the season with a win there. That was my second victory in Sebring, but this year’s success was very special.”

As well as works drivers, countless privateers are also active in motorsport with BMW cars. Do you like the Customer Racing program?

Müller: “Yes, very much so. It is important that a company like BMW commits to customer racing. BMW offers strong cars for every relevant class – and can be proud of this program. Combined with our works outings with the BMW M3 GT, BMW has a great presence in motorsport this year.”
