Audi Sport Team Valvoline driver Geoff Emery has won round two of the Audi Sport R8 LMS Cup on the Adelaide Parklands Street Circuit, propelling him to the top of the GT3 championship leaderboard. Early leader, CTVS Racers by Absolute’s Alex Au, took a hard-earned second after an eventful race ahead of The Bend Motorsport Park’s Yasser Shahin in front of a record Adelaide 500 crowd of 91,500 people.

The eighth season of the Audi Sport R8 LMS Cup will blast off the starting blocks this weekend at the Superloop Adelaide 500 in South Australia where the new 2019 evolution of the Audi R8 LMS GT3 will make its eagerly-anticipated Cup and Australia debut. The weekend’s double header marks the start of a 10-race, five-circuit season over which the all-privateer line-up will vie for the Audi Sport R8 LMS Cup titles.
