Aruba Ducati World Supebrike star Chaz Davies is swapping two wheels for four this weekend as he and Xavi Fores guest star in the Audi Sport TT Cup at the Hungaroring.
Davies is an avid karting enthusiast and has own track, so should be well-placed to make some of the series regulars wonder where he went or came from.
First practice has already taken place and Davies placed 14th out of a grid of 18 and is only 1.7s off the pace of fastest man Nicklas Nielsen. Former British Supersport star Josh Caygill is also in the field, half a second quicker than the Welshman.
“In the past, a number of motorcycle racers proved that they’re fast on four wheels as well,” says Chris Reinke, Head of Audi Sport customer racing. “I’m sure they’re going to deliver a fantastic show and fight a fair battle against our permanent entrants.”
Qualifying will start at 11:30 on Saturday, followed by the first 30-minute race at 16:20. On Sunday, at 11:45, round two across the same distance will conclude the weekend.
Both races will be broadcast by live streaming at www.audimedia.tv on the web and via the “Audi Media TV” SmartTV-App. This allows viewers around the globe to watch the Audi Sport TT Cup live on television via Samsung, LG, Amazon Fire and Android TV.
