MBP Talent Management is proud to confirm that Jayden Kelly will compete in the 2026 GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup, joining Greystone GT in the highly competitive Silver Class.
Following a standout 2025 season, where Jayden claimed the McLaren Trophy Europe Championship and made an immediate impact on his GT3 debut, this programme marks a major step forward in his professional GT career.
The 2026 campaign will see Jayden compete as part of an exceptional, newly formed McLaren GT3 Junior driver line-up, reinforcing his position as one of the most exciting young talents progressing through the McLaren racing pathway. This rare alignment places Jayden in one of the strongest Silver-class line-ups on the 2026 grid and provides the ideal environment for continued development at the international endurance level.
For MBP, this programme represents a carefully planned progression, building on Jayden’s success in one-make championships and ensuring his move into top-level GT competition is supported by the right team, car, and structure.
Speaking on the announcement, Jayden Kelly said:
“I am thrilled to be stepping up to a full-season campaign in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup with Greystone GT. Last year was a fantastic year of success with the team and our outing in GTWC in Barcelona proved what we can do at this level. I feel at home in the McLaren GT3 car and to compete against the world’s best in the top form of endurance racing in Europe is a challenge I can’t wait to take on head first.
“To be doing so in an all-McLaren GT3 Junior lineup of myself, Josh, Tommy and Zac feels like the perfect combination. This programme has been a lot of work to bring together and I couldn’t be more grateful for the continued support of Hilton, my partners and my team in making this all possible.”
Alex Watts, Managing Director of MBP, commented:
“Jayden’s ascent to GT World Challenge Europe competition in just his third season of competitive racing is fantastic evidence of his talent, hard work and commitment to making himself the best driver he can be. Jayden and Greystone GT formed a formidable team last year, and this step up has been carefully planned over a long period of time to maximise everyone’s chances of success. Greystone GT and McLaren have also put a lot of work into making this lineup happen, and we extend our thanks to all involved. Jayden is set for a really exciting 2026, and we are thrilled to be supporting him every step of the way.”
Preparations for the 2026 season are already underway, with MBP continuing to work closely with Jayden, Greystone GT, and key partners to support his continued development and success on and off the track.
