By

Norbert Michelisz will join the International Superstars Series grid at his home round next month at Budapest, driving for Scuderia Giudici in one of their BMW M3s.

The 27-year-old Hungarian, who races in the FIA World Touring Car Championship in a BMW and currently sits in second place in the independents’ classification, will join the field for the two races of the series at the Hungaroring on July 1st.

“I’m excited to join the Superstars world,” said Michelisz.

“I’m proud to join a championship that features a lot of great drivers coming from Formula 1 like Tonio Liuzzi, Gianni Morbidelli, Johnny Herbert, Christian Fittipaldi and Mika Salo. It will be great fun. I thank Scuderia Giudici, as they are preparing a BMW M3 with more than 500 horsepower. Now it’s up to us do our best and fight to be among the frontrunners.”

Team Principal Gianni Giudici added:
“We are proud to have Norbert Michelisz with us. The team is doing a great job in order to field a really competitive car. We’re working on the weight balancing of our M3 with the goal of improving the car’s performance and bring it up to its top spec.”
