Porsche Motorsport Asia Pacific is set for a busy weekend of racing, with its drivers and teams preparing to take on the European Le Mans Series (ELMS), GT World Challenge Asia and Porsche Carrera Cup Asia (PCCA).

The elements conspired to ramp up the already- formidable challenge of the storied Suzuka Circuit as the Audi Sport R8 LMS Cup took to the 5.807km Japanese track for round seven of the 2019 season. It was reigning champion Andrew Haryanto who emerged victorious, a pole-to-flag run in wet conditions marking his first win of the season. The result catapulted the Cup’s reigning champion into third place overall and right back in title contention with three races to go this season.

 ProMax Team’s Andrew Haryanto was crowned the 2018 Audi Sport R8 LMS Cup champion after a dramatic season finale at Malaysia’s Sepang International Circuit. The Indonesian’s victory in round 10 secured him the title by just five points from rival Bhurit Bhirombhakdi of Singha Plan-B by Absolute Racing. Third in the final standings was Yasser Shahin of The Bend Motorsport Park, after crossing the line fourth in round 10 despite carrying 40kg of success ballast. Completing the podium in round 10 was pole-sitter Jeffrey Lee of Team Audi Volkswagen Taiwan, his impressive haul of 28 points over the Malaysian weekend securing the final “Road to Spa” seat.
