XLR8 premiere for motorsport

Drexler-Automotive Formula Cup - Salzburgring (AUT)

The XLR8 premiere at the Salzburgring will start with a new live experience. This will present a new digital format to the wider motorsport public. As in the previous year, the organisers have succeeded in putting together an attractive programme with 13 races from a wide variety of racing series. The highlight of the race weekend (11-13 June) can certainly be called the Touring Car Classics with a large number of touring cars from the golden DTM era meeting on the ultra-fast Salzburgring as they did in the 80s or 90s. The Drexler Formula Cup comes to the Salzburgring for its third round. In addition, there will again be classification points for the Int. Austrian State Racing Car Championship. In Formula 3, Sandro Zeller (Jo Zeller Racing) has taken the lead after his double victory in Monza. Thomas Aregger (Franz Wöss Racing) is only two points behind his compatriot. Stefan Fürtbauer (Franz Wöss Racing) is hoping for a podium finish, as the Austrian has always improved in his first Formula 3 year. Vladimir Netusil (Effective Racing) has so far been able to convince with high-performance results in the somewhat more powerful Formula 3 - Open. He is in the lead ahead of Paolo Brajnik. In Formula 4, Patrick Schober (Procar Motorsport) wants to establish himself in the lead with a victory at the Salzburgring and reduce the gap to Benjamin Berta (Gender Racing). With the double victory at the Red Bull Ring, Jorden Dolischka (Top Speed) has convinced in Formula Renault. Now it's up to him to hold his own against Robert Siska (Franz Wöss Racing) and Alexander Geier (Geier Motorsport) at the Salzburgring.

On Friday (11.06.), two free practice sessions are scheduled for the Drexler Automotive Formula Cup at 11.30 and 16.30 hrs. The first qualifying session is scheduled for 11.30 hrs on Saturday (12.06.). At 16.00 hrs, the 1st round of the Drexler Formula Cup will take place. After the 2nd Qualifying, which is to be completed at 10.40 a.m., the lights will be switched to green for the 2nd race on Sunday (13.06.) from 15.35 onwards.
Due to the still valid regulations for the containment of the pandemic, there will be no spectators at the Salzburgring. The complete programme can be watched via livestream at www.xlr8experience.com on PC, laptop and smartphone.
