The German manufacturer announced on Wednesday that Krohn will join Philipp Eng as a full-season driver in the RLL-run team's #24 BMW M Hybrid V8 entry, while the sister #25 prototype will feature the same full-time line-up of Connor De Phillippi and Nick Yelloly.
Krohn and Eng will be joined for the five endurance races by Farfus, who will be part of BMW's LMGT3 programme in the World Endurance Championship, with Rast joining the roster for Daytona.
De Philippi and Yelloly meanwhile will be paired with Martin and Dries Vanthoor, who is one of the two nominated drivers so far for BMW's WEC programme.
“I’ve never waited for any season as much as I have for the 2024 one,” said Krohn, a GTLM class winner at Daytona in 2020.
“This is truly a special opportunity for me and I can’t be more grateful to BMW M Motorsport for putting their trust in me.
“This is basically what I’ve worked my whole life for, driving at the pinnacle of sports car racing in the top class, being the fastest car out on track.
“It’s also good that I have the IMSA experience from the past from the GT cars, because I can put myself on both sides and know what to expect from the GT drivers as we pass them in traffic.
“There is a lot I can bring in from the past and going back to racing with BMW M Team RLL is super fun.
