Audi Sport relies on four replacement drivers for Spa
Audi Sport has nominated four replacement drivers for the Spa 24 Hours: Frenchmen Dorian Boccolacci and Matthieu Vaxivière, German Dennis Marschall and Austrian Ferdinand Habsburg. This was necessary after the three leading drivers of the DTM – René Rast, Nico Müller and Robin Frijns – are focusing on the DTM title fight and will therefore not be competing at the Spa 24 Hours and Audi Sport driver Mirko Bortolotti will not compete due to a flu-like infection. This will result in changed driver line-ups for three of the four race cars of Audi Sport customer racing for Spa. The line-ups of the four additional Audi R8 LMS cars of the customer teams remain unchanged.
