Edoardo Mortara returns to the wheel of an Audi GT3 for the FIA GT World Cup which will take place in Macau in mid-November.
Nicknamed ‘Mr. Macau’ for the 7 victories obtained on the Circuito da Guia, the Swiss-Italian will board the R8 LMS entered by the Asian branch of the House of the Four Rings which will be managed by Absolute Racing.
Then the appointment is in the Far East on 16-19 November, where we will finally return to racing with great protagonists after 3 years of closures due to the Coronavirus pandemic which had prevented the majority of manufacturers, teams and official drivers from attending the event.
