In conjunction with the upcoming inaugural Audi R8 LMS Cup Asia Series, Hong-Kong superstar Aaron Kwok is set to take the drivers seat at the Merdeka Endurance Race, at the Sepang International Circuit.
Organised as one of the support races for the 14th edition of the Malaysia Merdeka Endurance Race (MMER), the Audi R8 LMS Cup, which is a one-make series featuring the Audi R8 LMS GT3 race cars, would also boast many other prominent names including Malaysia’s former Formula 1 driver Alex Yoong and other top drivers in the region with the likes of Marchy Lee, Franky Cheng Confu, Adderly Fong and top German driver, Rahel Frey.
Driving car No. #88 and driving for Team Audi Hong Kong Team, Aaron would be in action in Sepang as early as next Thursday (August 29) during the official free practice. Qualifying for the Audi R8 LMS Cup would be held at 8.15am on Friday with the first race scheduled at two hours later on the same day. Race 2 has been slotted for Saturday at 11.20am.
