Belgian Audi Club Team WRT with high-caliber line-up

The Belgian Audi Club Team WRT has submitted a subsequent entry for a surprise driver pairing: Will Stevens, a Formula One driver last year, and Audi driver René Rast from the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) are forming a driver team in the Blancpain GT Series. The 24-year-old Briton and the 29-year-old German are going to contest the Endurance Cup and the Sprint Cup of the racing series together in an Audi R8 LMS. The duo will be competing in eight of the ten races – only at the rounds at Brands Hatch (Sprint) and at the Nürburgring (Endurance) they will not be on the grid due to overlaps with FIA WEC commitments.
