Aston Martin Racing finalise 3 car GT World Cup driver line up
Friday, October 16, 2015
Tens days after confirming just one driver for the forthcoming FIA GT World Cup event at Macau in mid November, Aston Martin Racing and their customer team Craft Bamboo Racing yesterday confirmed the remaining two driver slots.
Joining Craft Bamboo Racing stalwart Darryl O'Young will be fellow Craft Bamboo Racing and GT Asia entrant Richard Lyons together with works driver Stefan Mucke.
Lyons shall compete in his 'regular' Interush sponsored #99 car, now with a hint of Gulf sponsorship and livery whilst Mucke (no stranger to the team from previous events) will compete in the W11.com sponsored #97 car.
“It is great to be back in Macau this year. It is an amazing event on the craziest street circuit and will be my second race with Craft-Bamboo in 2015. After our podium finish in Bathurst we want to be at the very top of the podium in the FIA GT World Cup final" said Mucke whilst Lyons was a little bit more surprised at the opportunity. “I never thought I would get the chance to race at the inaugural FIA GT World Cup in Macau. This is a fantastic opportunity for me" he was reported to have said.
The Macau Grand Prix takes place over the weekend of the 19th-22nd November.
