Lochie Fitzgerald-Symes will pilot the third Audi RS 3 LMS car entered by Track Tec Racing in TCR New Zealand, alongside Greg Murphy and Chris van der Drift.
Fitzgerald-Symes joins the grid as one of the more experienced TCR drivers in NZ having raced in the format since 2016 in the local endurance series.
“Track Tec are awesome to work with and super professional but still allow me to be me, I like to fly under the radar and just do my thing on the track, their knowledge and technical skill has definitely improved my racecraft. I can’t wait to finally set up the car into sprint mode and not have to hold back,” said Fitzgerald-Symes who added: “I’m loving the wheel-to-wheel racing and standing starts, so I’m definitely looking forward to what should be close racing in the TCR series. This is my fifth year racing a TCR car and although there’s been some huge names announced in the last couple of weeks, I feel I’m up to the challenge.”
