Audi R8 LMS Cup ready to dazzle Sepang International Circuit - fourthofficial.com

The Audi R8 LMS Cup returns to action in what is proving to be the most competitive season in the sprint race series’ history. The championship is wide open and we are now looking forward to continue our highly competitive season in front of our loyal fans in Malaysia”, said Rene Koneberg, Director of Audi Sport customer racing Asia. Patel jumped to the top of the Drivers Classification following a solid weekend last month during the Cup’s debut in Taiwan. But despite his consistent results, Patel is the only one of the Cup’s top six drivers who has yet to score an outright victory, and the Team Audi R8 LMS Cup driver will be gunning for all-out glory as he makes his sportscar debut on the 5. 543-km... Competing for Federal-Mogul Motorparts Racing, the young Dane celebrated his maiden Cup victory in Round 7. Third in the Drivers Classification is Chinese motorsport star Franky Cheng of FAW-VW Audi Racing Team. Cheng scored a trio of podium finishes in Taiwan last month, including his first win of the season, to make impressive strides in his championship campaign. Former Formula 1 driver Yoong of Audi TEDA Racing Team, who began his title defense with a victory in Round 1, is a mere four points. Source: www.fourthofficial.com
