Andreas Bakkerud

Go West: before the FIA World Rallycross Championship (World RX) makes its US debut in Austin (Texas), Mattias Ekström and Andreas Bakkerud familiarized themselves with the country and its people. After Andreas Bakkerud had visited NASA in Houston at the beginning of the week, he went riding in genuine Wild West style for a video clip. The race action with both Audi S1 EKS RX quattro starts on Saturday with free practice at 09:00 local time followed by two qualifying sessions. Highlight of the weekend are the semi-finals and final on Sunday (September 30) from 15:00 local time. SPORT1 broadcasts live from Texas on Sunday from 20:45 to 22:00 CEST on its main channel.
