Bremotion showed plenty of promise in the 2026 Valencia NASCAR Fest after both BS+ Competition-backed machines scored great results in Valencia.

One team that really shone in the 2026 NASCAR Euro Series opening round at Valencia is the German Bremotion team.

Bremotion brought home fantastic results with the two BS+ Competition sponsored Chevrolet Camaro’s across both EuroNASCAR V8GP and EuroNASCAR OPEN during the 2026 Valencia NASCAR Fest.

Garrett Lowe proved to be the star of the show with his performances. After being held back by ignition problems that left Lowe in dead last on Qualifying, the American turned things around with two stellar V8GP races.

In Race 1, Lowe recovered from 24th to seventh place, claiming the bonus points for most positions gained in the process.

Things went even better on Race 2, where Lowe put the drive of his life. Despite battling with a bout of flu, Lowe pushed reigning two-time champion Vittorio Ghirelli to the limit and came within half a second from his first EuroNASCAR victory.

The Gastonia-born driver thanked the Bremotion team members after the race for their hard work in the weekend. Lowe currently sits second in the standings, just five points away from Ghirelli.

“I think we had the best car,” said Lowe after his podium finish. “It’s not often you race against the best car in the field for the win.”

“I’m more mad about myself since I thought I could sit there and pace off [Ghirelli] for the last six laps. As soon as I went, I burned the rear tires off. Congrats to these guys [Ghirelli and PK Carsport], they did a good job but we had a great car this weekend.”

“I’m disappointed we didn’t finish higher in Race 1, now looking back because I realized how good of a car we had, but props to the Bremotion team. They stayed until 3 or 4 AM last night to rescale and do it again and get it better.”

Dominique Schaak was not able to replicate Lowe’s magic after retiring from his Race 1 due to power steering issues.

The same issue also affected the No. 77 BS+ Competition / AspiraX team on Saturday. Julien Rehberg was forced to retire in V8GP, while Beitske Visser tried her best to fight with no power steering before “Daisy” – the car’s nickname – stopped with two laps to go.

Both drivers were able to bounce back on Sunday, with Rehberg scoring a top-5 finish – his first top-5 across both classes – and Visser claiming her first top-10 finish.

The results from Lowe, Rehberg and Visser gave Bremotion a tally of one overall podium, two Trophy wins and two additional Trophy podiums; a great confidence boost heading to EuroNASCAR’s first visit to Circuit Paul Ricard.

“We gave exactly the right response after qualifying and delivered on the track,” said team principal Patrick Brenndörfer in Bremotion’s official press release.

“Garrett made a statement and is clearly one of the strongest drivers in the field this weekend. But Beitske and Julien also impressively demonstrated their quality.”

“Without Dominique’s technical issues, there would have been even more potential. We’re carrying this momentum forward and will be going all out in the next races.”
