Bentley reveals latest Continental GT3 race car

The age of the 'gentleman racer' is alive and well it seems, as Bentley has today announced its latest GT3 race car – based on the classy Continental. The second-generation Continental GT3 comes off the back of four successful years with the first-gen car, and will continue the brand's competitive efforts in endurance racing.

Bentley's motorsport heritage is long and storied, and includes iconic racers like the 4 ½ litre, Speed Six and Speed 8 Le Mans winners. The Continental GT3's first-generation predecessor itself had some considerable success, with 120 podium finishes and 45 wins across a total of 528 races worldwide.
