Audi squad Attempto Racing announces DTM entry

Audi squad Attempto Racing announces DTM entry

A regular in the GT World Challenge Europe, Attempto will become the third Audi squad to contest the second season of DTM’s GT3 era, joining Abt Sportsline and Team Rosberg.

Attempto officially signed a contract with Zug on his 19th birthday on February 6, with the German driver stepping up to the DTM after two seasons in the Italian GT championship.

Unlike most other drivers who take the single-seater route after graduating from karting, Zug stepped into GT competition at the age of 16 and went on to finish runner up in both the ADAC GT4 championship and GT4 European Series’ Pro-Am class in 2019.

His two campaigns in the Italian GT championship with former DTM title winner Roberto Ravaglia’s BMW team yielded four podiums and a best finish of fifth in the championship.

“Racing in the highest touring car and sports car league has always been my goal,” Zug said. “I am super happy that I was able to sign the contract with Attempto Racing and to do so on my birthday.”
