DTM champion Güven joins Manthey for Rolex 24

Porsche works driver Ayhancan Güven will drive Manthey's No. 911 Porsche 911 GT3 R in this month’s Rolex 24 At Daytona.

Güven, the reigning DTM Champion who won the 2025 title with a memorable last-lap overtake in the season finale at Hockenheim, joins the already-announced GTD PRO trio of Klaus Bachler, Ricardo Feller, and Thomas Preining in the No. 911 Porsche.

The Turkish driver made his IMSA and Rolex 24 debut last year with Wright Motorsports. Alongside co-drivers Adam Adelson, Elliott Skeer, and Tom Sargent, Güven finished second in GTD behind the winning No. 13 AWA (now 13 Autosport) Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R.

Güven has already been confirmed as one of Manthey’s full-time pro drivers for the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship, driving their No. 91 Porsche with James Cottingham and Timur Boguslavskiy. In the winter, Güven was promoted to a full-fledged works driver role at Porsche.

Ryan Hardwick, Riccardo Pera, Morris Schuring, and Richard Lietz will drive Manthey’s No. 912 Porsche in GTD, as announced last month.
