In 2017, Keagan Masters contests his first motor racing championship outside of his native South Africa. The 17-year-old racing driver was active in karting for eight years and entered single-seater racing in 2013. There, he immediately won the ‘Rookie of the Year’ ranking. Last year he took third place in the VW Polo Cup in his home country. His goal is a professional career in motorsport. His connection to the Volkswagen Group’s brands is strong: In 2017, Keagan Masters is also competing in the GTC-2 class of the Sasol GTC Touring Car Championship in South Africa for Volkswagen Motorsport in parallel with the Audi Sport TT Cup.
