Nielsen Racing welcomes Nick Yelloly to the team for the fourth round of the European Le Mans Series, the 2024 4 Hours of Spa. Nick will join our Pro-Am lineup in the #24 Oreca 07, racing alongside John Falb and Colin Noble, currently sitting fifth in the championship after securing a popular podium in Barcelona.

 

Introducing Nick Yellolly

BMW works driver Nick Yelloly, a seasoned racer with a diverse background spanning almost every major category in motorsport, is set to make his LMP2 debut at Spa with Nielsen Racing. Nick has excelled in everything from single-seaters to GT racing, including F1 and Hypercar in IMSA. Now, he is taking on a new challenge at one of the most iconic circuits in the world, bringing his wealth of experience to the highly competitive LMP2 Pro-Am class at the European Le Mans Series.

 

"I'm delighted to jump in and help out; I have bags of experience at this circuit, so I don't need to learn the circuit, just the car a little bit. It's an LMP2 Oreca, which is a downforce car, so I'm used to that! I'll be working with both John and Colin in #24. It will be key to ensure that the car is best suited for them, and then I adapt my driving style to the final setup."
