Audi Sport TT Cup, Hungaroring 2016
Audi TT cup #27, Dennis Marschall

Dennis Marschall has found his way back to the fast track in the Audi Sport TT Cup. Following his setback in the most recent round at the Nürburgring, the German won the first race at the Hungaroring. The 20-year-old celebrated his third victory this season ahead of the Finn Joonas Lappalainen. Nicklas Nielsen from Denmark completed the podium in third place. As a result, the premiere of the Audi one-make cup at Budapest saw the three drivers heading the standings on podium – only in reverse order. Lappalainen, following his eighth podium this season, continues to head the leaderboard. The 18-year-old has a tally of 218 points and a 13-point advantage over Marshall before race two on Sunday (11:45 CEST). Nielsen trails them in third place with 184 points. In the guest entrants’ classification in Hungary, the grid includes the two World Superbike riders Xavi Forés and Chaz Davies. The two professional motorcycle riders had no chance against the Dutchman Milan Dontje. The seasoned campaigner won ahead of Forés and Gabor Telek from Hungary. Davies retired following a collision that was not his fault.
