GT3.LIFE 2023 · 3GTUK 2024
Founding team — legacy continues via 🍤 GPThe original entry. Practice 🍤 is where the whole Prawn GP project started — and where it first proved the relentless-prep approach could actually win things.
From GT3.Life champions to the team that started a family.
Practice 🍤 was established with one goal: take sim racing more seriously than was strictly reasonable, and see where it led. In 2023, it led to the GT3.Life Constructors' Championship — a season built on relentless setup work and a habit of converting practice laps into race results, run in a Mercedes-AMG GT3 2020.
As the GT3.Life Championship transitioned into its rebranded successor, 3GTUK, for the 2024 season, Practice 🍤 carried its momentum forward. The team's biggest result of the era came from the cockpit: Matthew Riley added a Drivers' Championship to the team's honours board, his second title with the operation.
With Riley moving across to lead the newly-formed Scuderia Practice 🍤 for the 3GTUK split season, Practice 🍤 rebuilt around veteran Dave Green, whose experience steadied the line-up, and newcomer Richard Fletcher, stepping into his first season with the team. The pair took over the McLaren 720S GT3 Evo as Practice 🍤's car of choice, carrying the original livery forward even as the wider Prawn GP family expanded around it.
Practice 🍤 remains the foundation the rest of the family was built on. Today, that legacy continues most directly through 🍤 GP, the team's flagship identity going forward — but the name that started it all, and the 2023 title that proved the concept, belong to Practice 🍤.
Two eras, two line-ups — same name on the door.
