Audi Sport customer racing
Canada as a new satellite:Audi Sport customer racing is entering a new growth market in its worldwide customer support activities: Canada is receiving its own branch. While the headquarters in Germany has been taking care of the European market since the launch of the program ten years ago, Audi Sport customer racing Asia, Audi Sport customer racing Japan, Audi Sport customer racing Australia and Audi Sport customer racing USA have to date been in existence as four worldwide bases for the overseas business. Now, a fifth satellite – Audi Sport customer racing Canada – is joining the lineup. There the Canadian Touring Car Championship is the ideal field for the Audi RS 3 LMS TCR race car and the Audi R8 LMS GT4 race car. The first customer teams in 2018 instantly clinched class victories in the CTCC with both models. Individual teams with roots in Canada have commitments in other North American racing series as well. A special aspect in Canada is the fact that the Audi Sport brand and its dealerships are closely integrated in the racing program: retailers support every single one of the six race cars purchased and fielded by the teams to date in the 2018 season.
