Hong Kong \u2013 KC Motorgroup Ltd. (KCMG) is set to launch their Audi R8 LMS Cup campaign after signing Polish champion Jan\u00a0Kisiel. The 21-year-old driver joins the Hong Kong-based outfit in the Asian sprint race series of the brand with four rings after claiming the Audi Sport TT Cup title last year.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Returning to race in Asia is Formula Masters China Series 2015 champion Martin Rump, who joins Champion Racing Team in a car serviced by KCMG for the 2016 season.\u00a0The young talents will test their skills against some of the region\u2019s leading motorsport stars in the 5th season of the Audi R8 LMS Cup.<\/p>\n

21-year-old Kisiel displayed exceptional talent in Europe last season with five victories and nine podiums over the Audi Sport TT Cup\u2019s 12-race championship. The young Pole finished the season 25 points in front of his nearest rival, claiming the inaugural series title.<\/p>\n

Last season, we witnessed Rump\u2019s raw talent stand out on his way to winning the FMCS title, including an impressive streak of seven consecutive race wins. This earned him a cockpit in the 2015 Audi R8 LMS Cup finale in Shanghai, where he secured two 5th places in his GT3 debut.<\/p>\n

Jan Kisiel<\/em><\/strong>: \u201cI’m thrilled to continue racing with Audi and step up to the much more powerful R8 LMS. \u00a0The 2016 season is promising to be an exciting one.\u00a0 I look forward to racing with my new team KCMG and am sure that we will be among the top contenders for the championship title.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Martin Rump:<\/em><\/strong> \u201c<\/em>I\u2019m delighted to make the move into Audi R8 LMS Cup together with KCMG. We definitely have a strong determined team and quick drivers to create some results. I\u2019m excited to jump into the new generation car already next week in Shanghai. I\u2019m greatly thankful to Audi for all the support for making this season happen!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Audi R8 LMS Cup season gets underway at the Shanghai Audi International Circuit with a double-header\u00a0on May 21\u00a0and 22. To find out more about the series, please visit: www.audi-motorsport-asia.com<\/a><\/p>\n
