SAN MARCOS, CA - Million is excited to confirm that he will be competing in Germany’s DMV BMW 318ti Cup for 2020. Matt will join team JAS-Rennsport and teammate Luca Alpert for the full season of six rounds, which spans six different circuits across Germany and The Netherlands.
“Having a chance to compete and move my career ahead in Europe, especially Germany, has been a dream of mine since the early days of karting. I can vividly remember stories of fellow karters going on to compete in European touring cars, and I’ve been captivated by it since.”
“When I first came across this championship last year, I tried everything in my power to put something together for 2020. Before this point, I never felt it was the right time to pursue my dream of Europe. I often felt I had more to learn in America, and that the budget to compete overseas was just too much to justify. The BMW 318ti Cup entered my vision at the right time. It offers the tight ‘spec’ racing I’ve become accustomed to, it’s heavily cost contained, and the series is fast growing with double the entries from 2019. However, I likely would not be racing in it without JAS-Rennsport. They were enthused and supportive in taking me as an international driver. I’m seriously grateful for their commitment to myself, and I look forward to our progress this season!”
The championship begins at the Hockenheimring in February for an official series test, with the first round at Hockenheimring in March.
