While teams in Europe and the US prepare to campaign the M6 GT3 and GTLM in 2016 the era of the Z4 GT3 continues in Asia.

On November 8 BMW factory driver Dirk Müller teamed with Junsan Chen and Ollie Millroy in a Team AAI Z4 GT3 to finish second in the GT class in the three-hour Asian Le Mans Series race on the Sepang circuit in Malaysia. Another Team AAI Z4 finished sixth. The GT class win went to a McLaren 650 S GT3 driven by Rob Bell, Weng Sun Mok and Keita Sawa.

The Sepang event was the second in the four-race series; the first was a two-hour race on the Fuji circuit in October. The series continues with a pair of three-hour races in January; one in Thailand on January 10 and the finale on the Sepang circuit on January 24.—Brian S, Morgan
