Aston Martin V12 Zagato Completes First Running at the Nürburgring

Aston Martin’s new V12 Zagato endurance race car concept has completed its first running under race conditions in the 53rd ADAC ACAS H&R-Cup VLN race at the Nürburgring, just one week on from its first public appearance at the Villa D’Este Concours.

The typically eventful four-hour race amongst more than 150 other competitors formed part of vital preparations ahead of a two-car V12 Zagato entry at the Nürburgring 24-hour race in late June. The new V12 Zagato was joined by four other Aston Martins in the field, including the factory supported V8 Vantage (‘Smurf’) and V12 Vantage (Kermit).
