Third successive #RaceHome victory for Nico Müller

Castrol EDGE Audi e-tron Vision Gran Turismo #51 (Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline), Nico Müller

Already at the previous two rounds on the circuits in Barcelona and Bathurst, Nico Müller left his competitors in his wake in the all-important finals. The Swiss Audi DTM driver also celebrated his third victory of the season in a row by the end of the highlight event of the #RaceHome charity racing series on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife. The race format was adjusted, due to the length of the track covering over 25 kilometers through the notorious Green Hell: Instead of four qualifying races, only two were held to determine the drivers that proceeded to the semi-finals, after which, in addition to Müller, sim racer Patrick Jarczynski also qualified for the final. Jarczynski won the #RaceHome guest start with his design for the Audi e-tron Vision Gran Turismo and was also the favorite for victory against Müller. However, under great pressure from the Swiss driver, Jarczynski exceeded the limits of the electric sports car and went off track. In contrast, Müller made no mistakes and continued his winning streak. The seventh race of the virtual charity racing series will be held on Tuesday, May 26.

The indicated consumption and emissions values were determined according to the legally specified measuring methods. The WLTP test cycle completely replaced the NEDC on January 1, 2022, which means that no NEDC figures are available for vehicles with new type approvals from after this date.

The figures do not refer to a single, specific vehicle and are not part of the offering but are instead provided solely to allow comparisons of the different vehicle types. Additional equipment and accessories (add-on parts, different tire formats, etc.) may change relevant vehicle parameters, such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, and, in conjunction with weather and traffic conditions and individual driving style, may affect fuel consumption, electrical power consumption, CO2 emissions and the performance figures for the vehicle.

Due to the more realistic test conditions, the consumption and CO2 emission values measured are in many cases higher than the values measured according to the NEDC. This may result in corresponding changes in vehicle taxation since September 1, 2018. Additional information about the differences between WLTP and NEDC is available at www.audi.de/wltp

Further information on official fuel consumption figures and the official specific CO2 emissions of new passenger cars can be found in the “Guide on the fuel economy, CO2 emissions and power consumption of all new passenger car models”, which is available free of charge at all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern, Germany (www.dat.de).
