Leipert Motorsport, the German GT racing team based near Düsseldorf and run by Ingo and Marcel Liepert, has announced that it will enter the Round Four of the Intelligent Money British GT Championship at Spa-Francorchamps on July 24 – 25.
Leipert Motorsport has entries in the Creventic 24h series as well as five entries in the 2021 Lamborghini Super Trofeo series.
Fidel Leib and Brendon Leitch will share the driving duties in the team’s British GT entry, having been teammates in the team’s #10 Lamborghini Huracan GT3 in the 2021 24H Series, finishing third overall at the opening round at the HockenheimRing.
25-year-old Brendan Leitch began his driving career in karts.
