Mugello 20-22nd March

Monday 23rd March 2026

The 2026 24H Series Michelin 12H Mugello kicked off Era Motorsport's 2026 GT3 effort with the No. 81 Ferrari 296 GT3 on the car's home turf at the Ferrari-owned Italian circuit.

After a few days of testing the newly re-liveried car, drivers Oliver Bryant, Jake Hill, Ryan Dalziel, and Dwight Merriman started ninth on the grid Saturday morning. After a strong effort over the opening half of the race, the crew finished Part One in fourth overall and second in their GT3 Pro-Am sub-class.

The race resumed with Part Two on Sunday, where the crew continued their podium pace on track until a suspension failure in the 11th hour forced them to retire the No. 81.

The next round of the series takes place at the iconic Spa-Francorchamps circuit on the 18-19th April.

“I’m looking forward to the next race at Spa. It’s my favourite Circuit in Europe and I’ve enjoyed a lot of success there in the past in GT3 machinery even though it was over a decade ago! The ERA Motorsport team had strong race pace at Spa last year so I’m hopeful we can repeat that form and push for a strong result” - Olly Bryant
