BMW Adds 21-Year-Old Tim Tramnitz to 2026 Works Roster for Selected M4 GT3 EVO Races

The F3 frontrunner earned promotion after a standout January GT3 test, reflecting BMW’s youth-focused refresh of its 23-driver squad.

Overview

BMW confirmed Tramnitz will make selected appearances in the M4 GT3 EVO this year, with his exact race programme yet to be announced.
He becomes the youngest factory driver and arrives alongside new signing Jordan Pepper, with Jesse Krohn and Madison Snow departing to keep the roster at 23.
BMW’s Andreas Roos said Tramnitz impressed with his performance and steep learning curve during his GT3 debut and highlighted a lineup blending youth and experience.
Tramnitz’s résumé includes runner-up finishes in Italian and German F4 in 2021 and fourth in the 2025 FIA Formula 3 standings.
Despite his BMW deal, he will test for Hitech GP in this week’s FIA F3 pre-season running at Barcelona as a substitute for the injured Michael Shin.
