• SAMANTHA TAN has locked down a two-year BMW Global Ambassador extension through 2026, proving that consistent podium performance gets you the security every driver craves. She’s currently sitting fourth overall in IMSA GTDX standings while leading the Bronze cup – a solid foundation that clearly convinced BMW she’s worth the long-term investment.
• The Canadian driver is making her Circuit de la Sarthe debut this June in the Road to Le Mans, sharing the No. 38 BMW M4 GT3 EVO with Gustav Bergstroem for BMW Team WRT. This isn’t just another race weekend – it’s a strategic step toward her ultimate Le Mans goal, and BMW is backing that ambition with real seat time on the legendary French circuit.
• Her ST Racing team has been quietly building an impressive resume since 2017, including back-to-back Pirelli championships in 2019-2020 and the historic first overall win for BMW’s M4 GT3 at 2022’s 12H Mugello. While other teams chase headlines, they’ve been consistently delivering results that matter – the kind of track record that makes manufacturers want to write multi-year checks.
