Eng and Krohn complete BMW Le Mans 24 Hours GTE Pro 2019 line-up

The regular World Endurance Championship pairings of Martin Tomczyk and Antonio Felix da Costa and Augusto Farfus and Nicky Catsburg have been confirmed for the two factory MTEK BMW M8 GTEs entered at the series finale on June 15/16.

BMW DTM driver Philipp Eng and IMSA SportsCar Championship regular Jesse Krohn complete the line-up.

Eng, who was part of BMW's GT Le Mans class winning line-up at this year's Daytona 24 Hours, will be teamed with Tomczyk and Catsburg for the second year in a row for what will be his third start at Le Mans.

Finnish driver Krohn has been with the Rahal team full time in IMSA for the past three seasons and will make his Le Mans debut alongside da Costa and Farfus.

Krohn takes the place of da Costa's BMW Andretti Formula E team-mate Alexander Sims.

BMW Motorsport boss Jens Marquardt said: "We are excellently positioned with the drivers we have in the cockpits of the two BMW M8 GTEs.

"The four regular drivers - Martin, Nick, António and Augusto - have had podium finishes in the WEC and are joined by Philipp and Jesse, another two drivers who also have plenty of experience in the BMW M8 GTE and know what it takes to be successful in GT racing."
