The Series
European Le Mans Series, abbreviated ELMS, is an international racing series, that is competed across six races around Europe. The competition involves several classes; LMP2, LMP2 Pro/Am, LMP3 and GTE – GMB Motorsport competes in the latter for the first time with our newly bought Aston Martin Vantage GTE.
