Bailey Voisin:
“It was brilliant to wrap up the teams championship at Nürburgring - everyone at United Autosports has worked extremely hard and they thoroughly deserve that result. In regards to the Drivers’ Championship - Charlie and I enter Barcelona with a strong lead but it’s never over until the final chequered flag of the second race. I do feel confident however that we can finish the job in hand and end the season on a high.”
Charlie Fagg:
“I am extremely excited to head to the final round of GT4 European Series. It’s been a really enjoyable season thus far and I’m hoping to continue on from Nürburgring with more podiums. All in all, I’m excited to go and get some more sun.”

Gus Bowers:
“I am incredibly excited for the final round of the championship in Barcelona, hopefully we can end the season on a high at what is a brilliant race track.”
Dean Macdonald:
“I am looking forward to our last round at Barcelona. Nürburgring went very well, with us taking our first win of the season and the team taking the Silver Teams Championship. I hope we can continue that momentum on into Barcelona. Our main goal going into the last round is to take third in the Drivers’ Championship with only two points in it and if everything goes to plan, we could fight for second. I am feeling very relaxed about it and will be treating it the same as every other round, where we will just try and collect the best result possible on the day.”

Charlie Kemp:
“It has been a brilliant season for the whole team in the 2021 GT4 European Series. To have won the Teams Championship in the penultimate round is fantastic. Gus and Dean were finally rewarded with a long-awaited win and can now fight for a top-three finish in the Drivers’ Championship. Bailey and Charlie have a 44-point lead in the drivers’ standings as well, so with another strong weekend from them, it could be the perfect ending to the 2021 season.”
