Strong French weekend: Bremotion remains second in the NASCAR Euro Series

Bremotion delivered strong performances in both championship classes at the second NASCAR Euro Series race weekend at Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet, France. Garrett Lowe defended his second-place position in the PRO class with great fighting spirit and a victory in the Junior Trophy. Julien Rehberg also collected valuable points and finished on the Junior podium. In the OPEN class, Beitske Visser shone despite a difficult start, securing two wins in the Ladies Trophy, while Dominique Schaak impressed with consistently strong performances and a podium finish in the Masters Trophy.

Garrett Lowe once again demonstrated his top form at the historic circuit in southern France. The American qualified his #99 Chevrolet Camaro in sixth position on Saturday, laying the foundation for a strong race weekend.

In the first PRO race, Lowe initially fell behind in the turbulent opening phase and dropped back to twelfth place at one point. However, the Bremotion driver showed great fighting spirit and impressively worked his way back up to seventh place during the race. This also secured him the victory in the Junior Trophy.

The second race on Sunday was less fortunate: Lowe initially crossed the finish line in ninth place, but was subsequently given a ten-second penalty and ranked 13th.

Teammate Julien Rehberg also delivered a strong performance. The 19-year-old started from 17th position after a difficult qualifying session, but worked his way up to 13th overall in the first race with some impressive overtaking maneuvers, also securing third place in the Junior Trophy. The German driver confirmed his strong form in the second race as well, finishing 12th.

Two Ladies Trophy wins for Beitske Visser

Beitske Visser experienced an emotional weekend in the OPEN class. The fast Dutchwoman initially qualified her #77 Chevrolet Camaro in a strong fifth position. However, shortly before the first race, a technical problem forced the team to make last-minute repairs. Thanks to a strong effort from the Bremotion crew, Visser was still able to start – albeit from the back of the field.

What followed was an impressive comeback: Visser fought her way up to 14th place overall and simultaneously secured victory in the Ladies Trophy.

On Sunday, the 31-year-old seamlessly continued her impressive performance. Her sixth-place finish overall was another strong showing, and she also celebrated her second victory in the Ladies Trophy. This win puts Visser in the lead in the overall standings for this category.

Teammate Dominique Schaak once again delivered an extremely consistent weekend. The Magdeburg native qualified in 15th place and remained error-free in both races. Schaak improved to 12th position in each race and was further rewarded with third place in the Masters Trophy on Saturday.

“Even though not everything went perfectly, we delivered an incredibly strong weekend,” explains Bremotion team principal Patrick Brenndörfer. “We showed that we have the speed to compete at the very front in all categories. We’re taking this momentum, team spirit, and positive energy with us to Great Britain.”

The NASCAR Euro Series will next stop at Brands Hatch in Great Britain. On June 6th and 7th, 2026, the racing series will be racing on the legendary Indy Circuit. All NASCAR Euro Series races will be broadcast live on Sportdigital.
