Austrian GT stars to hit the pedals again
Spielberg, in the heart of Austria’s Styria region, is to host all kinds of GT action with a veritable armada of top Austrian drivers and teams. Among those hitting the throttle for much-loved local team Grasser Racing from nearby Knittelfeld will be Austria’s Clemens Schmid. With its Huracán GT3 cars from Lamborghini, the team has four real beasts ready for battle. Klaus Bachler is another Austrian determined not to miss his home race – he shares the cockpit of a Porsche 911 GT3 R with female racer Simona de Silvestro from Switzerland. Also competing in the Porsche 911 GT3 R for Team MRS GT-Racing is Viennese Mick Wishofer. YACO Racing will send a fully Austrian duo into their home race at the Red Bull Ring in Simon Reicher and Norbert Siedler. The Austrian pair are to battle together for points in the International German GT Championship in an Audi R8 LMS. Thomas Preining, an Austrian Porsche expert last involved in the ADAC GT Masters in 2019, is also returning to the international German GT Championship alongside defending champion Christan Engelhart of Germany.
Thrilling racing action included in the side series
So many great races are scheduled. In addition to GT3 super sports cars from Audi, BMW, Corvette, Honda, Lamborghini, Mercedes and Porsche, the ADAC TCR Germany, ADAC Formula 4, ADAC GT4 Germany and the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany will also serve up racing action at the Red Bull Ring.
Safety in the stands is ensured
The Austrian government has announced that outdoor events with spectators should be possible again from 19 May. Subject to the relevant legal requirements, the grandstands at the Red Bull Ring are therefore due to reopen at the ADAC GT Masters. The health of spectators is the utmost priority in Spielberg. All the usual Covid-19 hygiene and safety measures must be followed by all visitors. Seat-specific bookings also allow for sufficient distancing in the grandstands.
