Craft Bamboo Enter Sepang 12 Hours

Craft-Bamboo Racing has confirmed a single-car entry for the revived Sepang 12 Hours with Taiwanese racer Jeffrey Lee, Thai driver Sandy Stuvik and Jiatong Liang from China set to pilot the #88 Mercedes-AMG GT3.

The event will also mark Craft-Bamboo Racing’s return to the famed Malaysian circuit for the first race since the pandemic, with their last race at SIC back in 2019.

The 2023 Sepang 12 Hours is set to be run as an 8-hour race as opposed to the traditional 12-hour format, making it more financially viable as many Asian teams are still recovering from the setbacks of 3 years of extremely limited racing in Asia due to the pandemic.

Lee has taken numerous victories in Sepang, including in 2019 during his GT World Challenge Asia and China GT Championship campaigns.

He will be well supported by 3-time Thailand Super Series champion Stuvik. The highly regarded GT3 driver has also raced with Craft-Bamboo Racing in the past, most recently in 2018 at the GT World Challenge Asia season.

The line-up will be rounded out with China’s Liang, who recently celebrated a Greater Bay Area GT Cup victory at the 2022 Macau Grand Prix. Liang, who has raced in Europe for the majority of his career, will be entering his first endurance event in South East Asia.
