The Barwell Motorsport Lamborghini crew’s participation had been thrown into doubt by a Motorsport UK ruling following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which barred Russian license-holders from competing in Britain.
Barwell has not formally commented on the development but a British GT statement said that Machitski, who has previously held a UK license, and Danish driver Lind “cannot retain their GT3 drivers’ crown as a result of Motorsport UK’s decision to suspend its recognition of Russian licenses”.
