ADAC GT – Jaime Alguersuari continues his reconversion

For several days, the name of the former pilot Toro Rosso en F1 and the former Pirelli test driver returns to the forefront. Already confirmed to be one of the drivers of the Spark-Renault SRT_01E from the Virgin Racing team in Formula E, the Catalan Jaime Alguersuari will play from the weekend of May 25 on a Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 from the Rowe Racing team in ADAC GT Masters.

“It's good that we were able to sign a top driver like Jaime Alguersuari, said Rowe Racing Team Principal Hans-Peter Naundorf. It's good news for our team, but also for the ADAC GT Masters, that Jamie has decided to race here. Last week he did a test with our SLS AMG GT3 and it performed well from the start. From this point of view, the decision to launch a second car was easy. Jamie is not only a great asset to our team, but also a valuable asset to the entire series. »

Alguersuari will be lined up alongside German Nico Bastian in the second SLS AMG entered by the team. The other crew is currently made up of Germans Maro Engel and Jan Seyffarth.
