Saintéloc Racing changes its crews for the 9 Hours of Kyalami

On the occasion of the final of the Intercontinental GT Challenge (IGTC) in Kyalami (South Africa, December 2-4), Saintéloc Racing will field two Audi R8 LMS. Winner in fine style of the 8 Hours of Indianapolis this fall, the Saint-Etienne structure will seek to help the brand with the Rings win the Manufacturers' title. To do this, the official car number 25 will be allocated to Christopher Haase, Patric Niederhauser and Mattia Drudi, who replaces Markus Winkelhock.

Second in the Silver Cup class in Indiana, Lucas Légeret and Nicolas Baert will welcome Simon Gachet: “I am delighted to find Saintéloc for this last round of the Intercontinental GT Challenge, as well as finding the Audi R8 LMS GT3. I was looking to complete my program in the series after Spa, and it turns out that Aurélien Panis had a conflict dates with other commitments (Andros Trophy. Editor’s note), which freed up a place. If I know the team and the car, it there will be the discovery of the Kyalami circuit and my two teammates whom I do not know. There is no no reason why it wouldn't go well given their performance in Indianapolis. Kyalami necessarily evokes the F1, and I'm going to work on a simulator to get my bearings. »
