Engstler confirms 2010 and plans to expand

The Liqui Moly Engstler team has confirmed it plans to contend the 2010 World Touring Car Championship, as well as expand it’s squad.

The team hopes to add an Asian driver contingent to the team, which has a lot of links in that series after winning the 2005, 2006 and 2008 Asian Touring Car Championships.

Team manager Kurt Treml said:
“We are always looking at the future and take care of it in all our decisions. We are pleased that Liqui Moly confirmed their support for 2010.

Franz Engstler and I have been working together since nearly ten years and we always worked to build the team up step by step, with the aim to become one of the best touring car teams in Europe.”

The team is already trialling this effort by running an additional car in the two flyaway races in Japan and Macau – with Masaki Kano driving the car in Japan.
