The endurance race in the Gulf Region is not Max' his first participation in the Dunlop 24H DUBAI at the 5,390 kilometers long track of the Dubai Autodrome. Last year Braams was only 17, when he participated with a BMW Diesel and the impressive driver line-up of Sebastiaan Bleekemolen and Henry Zumbrink. Ed Nicelife, Kersten Jodexnis and Marcel Belka, all German well-experienced endurance drivers, will represent together with Max Braams the Hamburg Racing Team 3.

"I am really excited going to Dubai for the Dunlop 24H DUBAI again. Last year my team faced some technical difficulties, but for this year I am confident and it looks like it's going to be a great experience. Especially, because I will participate with a GT4 car. After my experiences during the Masters in the Dutch GT4 with the Ekris BMW M3 GT4 in Zandvoort, it's a good possibility to compare the expierences," according to Braams.

Upcoming weekend Max will join the traditional New Years race during the Winter Endurance Championship at Circuit Park Zandvoort, The Netherlands. For the Dunlop 24H DUBAI 2012, this race will be a good preparation, because it's also partially driven in the dark.
