Oettinger a well-known name for tuning and running Volkswagen cars in different motorsport categories will field two Golf GTI cars in the 2019 ADAC TCR Germany series.
The programme will be run in cooperation with Engstler Motorsport and the drivers will be the 2018 TCR Asia vice-champion Mitchell Cheah from Malaysia and Netherlands’ Maurits Sandberg who was a regular in the German series during the last two seasons.
“The ADAC TCR Germany is one of the most interesting Touring Car championships in Europe, and, with the entry of the Volkswagen Golf GTI cars, it is ideal for us to go chasing quick lap times,” said team principal Rüdiger Völkner.
“We are excited about this cooperation and are certain that, together with Oettinger, we have a great season ahead of us. Mitchell Cheah was already successful for us in TCR Asia and will now participate in his first German series,” added Kurt Treml, Sports Director at Engstler Motorsport.
