In January 2024, Reicher won the 2024 Dubai 24 Hour with Gilles Magnus, Markus Winkelhock, Christopher Haase and Mike Zhou with Eastalent Racing Team.

[35] Starting off the season with wins at the Hockenheimring and Hungaroring, [36] [37] the pair then scored further wins at Le Castellet and Red Bull Ring, [38] [39] as well as taking three other podiums to secure their maiden International GT Open title at Monza.
