Audi Sport customer racing with two partner teams in new WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
Following its successful debut season, the #Audi RS 3 LMS will compete at the highest international level this year. #Audi Sport customer #racing is supporting two partner teams in the #wtcr – FIA World Touring Car Cup. The series is exclusively reserved to TCR race cars and encompasses rounds in Africa, Asia, Europe and South America.
The #wtcr – FIA World Touring Car Cup was formerly known as the FIA World Touring Car Championship. For #Audi Sport customer #racing, the Comtoyou #racing and WRT teams will officially be on the grid.
Team WRT from Baudour, Belgium – one of the most successful #Audi customer teams in GT3 #racing since 2010 – will prepare two #Audi RS 3 LMS cars for Gordon Shedden and Jean-Karl Vernay. 39-year-old Scotsman Gordon Shedden has won the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) three times, most recently in the 2016 season. 30-year-old Frenchman Jean-Karl Vernay was 2010 Indy Lights Champion in the United States, won the 2012 Porsche Carrera Cup in France and the 2017 TCR International Series. Both drivers are awarded #Audi Sport driver status.
31-year-old Belgian Frédéric Vervisch will compete as an #Audi Sport driver in the #wtcr as well. The 2008 ATS Formula 3 Cup winner and #Audi Sport customer #racing GT3 campaigner will continue to drive for Comtoyou #racing. Last year, the squad based in Waterloo, Belgium, relied on Vervisch in the TCR International Series as well. Three teammates complete the lineup. 23-year-old Frenchman and TCR International Series race-winner Aurélien Panis, 25-year-old Belgian Denis Dupont, who is supported by the Royal Automobile Club Belgium (RACB), and 28-year-old Frenchman Nathanaël Berton – the 2016/17 champion in the Trophée Andros ice #racing series – will contest the events as privateer drivers.
