GetSpeed will return to Rolex 24 in 2026

Top Mercedes-AMG customer team GetSpeed will return for its second entry into the Rolex 24 At Daytona in January, in collaboration with Bartone Bros. Racing and driver Anthony Bartone, who’ll make his second Daytona start in the No. 69 Mercedes-AMG GT3 EVO.

Bartone finished fifth in GTD PRO last year at Daytona, alongside Mercedes-AMG Performance Drivers Luca Stolz, Fabian Schiller, and Maxime Martin. Bartone’s supporting cast of drivers for this year’s Rolex 24 will be announced at a later date.

“I am looking forward to the second go-around for me and the GetSpeed team at the Rolex 24,” said second-generation driver Bartone, the son of drag racer Tony Bartone. “Last year we had a good showing; the car got away from us in the heat a little, but we learned from it. It was a run to be proud of. As my dad said, ‘They knew we were there.’ We are looking to build upon that success and show that improvement come January.”

“I am coming off a good season in Europe,” he continued. “It has been a great place for me to develop over the last couple of years with my teammate Fabian Schiller and Andy Pilgrim by my side. Before the Rolex 24, we have our first Asian Le Mans Series race in Sepang, my third time in the series.”

Bartone won Race 1 of the Michelin Le Mans Cup Road To Le Mans event, around the famous Circuit de la Sarthe. The GetSpeed team as a whole is coming off a successful season in Europe which included a win and three additional podiums in the International GT Open series.

“Coming back to Daytona in 2026 is something truly special for us,” said Adam Osieka, CEO & Team Principal of GetSpeed. “This return wouldn’t be possible without our strong partnership with Bartone Bros. Racing and Anthony Bartone – a collaboration built on trust, ambition, and the shared pursuit of excellence. Together we head back to one of the most iconic endurance races in the world. We know what to expect this time, and we’re ready to take on the challenge again.”

GetSpeed and Bartone Bros. Racing will be in action at the upcoming Asian Le Mans Series opener in Sepang on December 12th.
