Brutal Fish Campos Racing has confirmed its participation in the inaugural 2026/27 Asian Le Mans Cup (ALMC), with Kevin Rabin and Morten Strømsted set to compete in the LMP3 category. The Spanish outfit will field a #12 Ligier JS P325-Toyota as it continues expanding its international endurance racing programme following a successful maiden Michelin Le Mans Cup campaign.
The announcement comes ahead of the championship’s opening weekend at Circuit Paul Ricard on 13–15 November, where the team will join the 17-car field confirmed for the inaugural ALMC event. Rabin and Strømsted will compete in the Pro/Am category, which requires at least one Bronze-rated driver in each line-up.
Having secured second and third in the 2026 Michelin Le Mans Cup LMP3 standings, Brutal Fish Campos Racing will aim to build on its achievements as it enters another international endurance racing competition.
Brutal Fish Campos Racing expands endurance racing programme
Brutal Fish Campos Racing made its Michelin Le Mans Cup debut in 2026, fielding two Ligier JS P325-Toyota prototypes across the six-round championship.
The team established itself among the leading contenders during its maiden campaign, with August Raber and Arthur Rogeon securing second in the LMP3 standings with 85 points. Meanwhile, the sister entry of Lucas Fluxá and Matúš Ryba completed the championship podium with 77 points.
Both crews finished on the podium at the season finale in Portimão, securing second and third in the race and completing a successful first year for the Spanish outfit.
The team will now expand its programme into the Asian Le Mans Cup, with the championship providing an additional opportunity to develop its experience in prototype racing.
Campos Racing Team Principal Adrián Campos welcomed the move, emphasising the organisation’s ambition to continue strengthening its endurance racing activities.
“We are very pleased to expand our presence in endurance racing with this new Asian Le Mans Cup programme. It is a discipline in which we are investing heavily and one that is becoming increasingly important within our sporting project. Following the strong results achieved this season in the European championship, we want to continue building on that progress and bring our experience to another highly prestigious international series. I would like to welcome Kevin and Morten to the team. We have a very competitive driver line-up, and we will work hard from the outset to provide them with everything they need to fight for the best possible results”.
Rabin joins Campos Racing as reigning ALMS LMP3 champion
Rabin arrives at Brutal Fish Campos Racing following his championship-winning campaign in the 2025/26 Asian Le Mans Series.
The 19-year-old Swiss driver secured the LMP3 title with CLX Motorsport, gaining valuable experience in the category ahead of his move to the Spanish team.
Having also competed in the Michelin Le Mans Cup, Rabin will bring relevant knowledge of Ligier LMP3 machinery and multi-class endurance racing to the new partnership.
His experience will be particularly valuable as Brutal Fish Campos Racing prepares for its first Asian Le Mans Cup campaign, with the team aiming to build on its competitive performances in Europe.
Rabin expressed enthusiasm about joining the programme and taking on another challenge in prototype racing.
“I am thrilled to participate in the Asian Le Mans Cup with Brutal Fish Campos Racing. My objective is to take on a new challenge and make the most of this opportunity after my previous experience in Michelin Le Mans Cup. With Brutal Fish Campos Racing, I know I can count on them to deliver the best”.
Strømsted prepares for LMP3 debut following GT racing experience
Strømsted will make his LMP3 racing debut with Brutal Fish Campos Racing, bringing previous experience from GT and other sports car competitions.
The Danish driver previously competed in the Asian Le Mans Series’ GT3 category in 2024 and has also participated in the Radical Cup Europe. His experience includes a podium finish at Circuit Paul Ricard during the 2026 season.
Although the upcoming campaign represents his first competitive appearance in LMP3 machinery, Strømsted already has connections to Campos Racing. He previously tested a Formula 4 car with the Spanish team, making his return to the organisation particularly meaningful.
The Danish driver hopes his familiarity with the championship environment and Circuit Paul Ricard will help him adapt to the new prototype.
“I’m really looking forward to my Asian Le Mans Cup debut in the Pro-Am class with Brutal Fish Campos Racing at Le Castellet. I tested F4 with Campos earlier in my career, so it feels like coming home to the Campos family – and getting to work alongside Adrián Campos and Andreu Romera makes it extra special. Asian Le Mans Series will be my first LMP3 race and hopefully a step on the way to ELMS in 2027. I raced in the Asian Le Mans Series in GT3 in 2024, and I secured a podium at Le Castellet in the Radical Cup Europe this season, so I know both the championship and the track. Now I’m ready for a cold and wet European winter season – conditions in which I’m typically extra competitive – and I’m hoping we can make an impression right from the start”.
Brutal Fish Campos Racing prepares for six-race ALMC campaign
The inaugural Asian Le Mans Cup season will take place entirely in Europe, following the relocation of the ACO’s Asian endurance racing championships amid continued instability in the Middle East.
The new series will run alongside the 2026/27 Asian Le Mans Series, although the two championships will feature different machinery and race formats.
While the Asian Le Mans Series will host four-hour races for Hypercar, LMP2 and GT3 entries, the Asian Le Mans Cup will feature two-hour contests across LMP3 Pro, LMP3 and GT3.
Brutal Fish Campos Racing will compete in the four-car LMP3 category against CLX Motorsport and Motorsport98. The latter enters the championship following consecutive Michelin Le Mans Cup LMP3 Pro/Am titles, providing strong competition for the Spanish outfit.
The six-race championship will take place across three double-header weekends:
- Rounds 1 and 2: Circuit Paul Ricard, Le Castellet, France — 14–15 November 2026
- Rounds 3 and 4: Circuito de Jerez–Ángel Nieto, Spain — 16–17 January 2027
- Rounds 5 and 6: Autódromo Internacional do Algarve, Portimão, Portugal — 20–21 February 2027
Each race will last 120 minutes, with teams required to balance qualifying performance, tyre management and driver changes throughout the relatively short endurance contests.
With its driver pairing now confirmed, Brutal Fish Campos Racing will look to carry the momentum of its successful Michelin Le Mans Cup campaign into the new championship. Rabin’s recent LMP3 title-winning experience and Strømsted’s background in GT and prototype racing provide the team with a promising combination as it prepares for the opening round at Paul Ricard.
