Formula 3 leader in Audi RS 5 DTM
- Junior talent #antoniogiovinazzi (21) stands in for Timo Scheider
- Italian makes #dtm debut at Moscow Raceway
- Birth year ‘93’ as car number on AUTO TEST #audi RS 5 DTM
Audi is again giving a promising junior driver an opportunity in the DTM. The 21-year-old Italian #antoniogiovinazzi will be contesting the two #dtm races at Moscow Raceway (Russia) for #audi Sport Team Phoenix.
The leader of the European Formula 3 Championship will be competing in the AUTO TEST #audirs5dtm that is normally driven by Timo Scheider (D). The 2008 and 2009 #dtm Champion has been excluded from the #dtm event at Moscow by the sports court of the German Motorsport Association (DMSB).
Matching his year of birth, 1993, Giovinazzi, who hails from Martina Franca in southern Italy, will be driving car number ’93.’ The Italian had left a strong impression in an #audi Sport #dtm evaluation of young drivers at the end of the past season and confirmed it in #dtm tests at the Lausitzring in June.
For the DTM’s Russian round this weekend, Giovinazzi had been scheduled as the driver of an #audirs5dtm race taxi for the first time. Now, the Italian is making his debut in the internationally popular touring car #racing series that will start with the rollout on Friday at 12.00, local time (11.00 CEST).
The first of the two races at Moscow Raceway will start on Saturday at 16.33 (from approx. 15.20, CEST, live on ‘Das Erste’), the second race on Sunday at 16.13 (from 15.00, CEST, live on ‘Das Erste’).
