News & Announcements China Shanghai International Circuit March 19
On the eve of the 2025 F1 Chinese Grand Prix, a team shining with a new light, Incipient Racing, was officially established. This new force will go all out in the 2025 season, participate in the highly anticipated SRO GT Cup, and will make a stunning appearance in the warm-up event of the F1 Chinese Grand Prix race weekend, thus opening a new chapter of their racing legend.
The word "Incipient" means "beginning". At this moment, although the Incipient Racing team is standing at the starting point, the team members' fiery eyes have already crossed the numerous tracks and firmly locked on the finish line in the distance that symbolizes glory. The team has innovative and advanced ideas, the courage to face difficulties and obstacles, and the deep love for racing sports. They are determined to write their own glorious chapter in the ever-changing arena and let the world hear their names. Incipient Racing has a total of four racing cars, including two Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo IIs, one Audi R8 LMS GT4 and one Porsche 718 GT4 RS racing cars. The luxurious lineup of four GT racing cars will compete for the best results in domestic and international arenas.
As the new GT4 championship held in China in 2025, the SRO GT Cup has attracted a lot of attention. The event has carefully planned four races throughout the year, with a total of 8 exciting 30-minute sprint races. There will be two fierce competitions every race weekend, and each car will be driven by a driver alone.
As a GT4 event, its positioning is more to attract a wide range of gentleman drivers and young drivers to participate. The SRO GT Cup has clear eligibility restrictions, and only FIA bronze and silver drivers are allowed to join this speed feast. In addition, SRO's prestigious "Performance Balance" system will also be accurately adjusted according to the characteristics and requirements of different tracks, so as to ensure that different models in the event can be in a fair competition environment, making the results of the competition more fair and exciting.
Wu Zhenlong and Air Tong will represent the team in this season's competition. The two drivers have rich experience in driving GT4 racing cars and have participated in the Shanghai 8-Hour Endurance Race together. They have experience in long-distance driving of the same level of racing cars, which lays a good foundation for participating in this sprint race. Wu Zhenlong will drive the No. 650 Porsche 718 GT4 RS Clubsport to participate in this race. He once drove the same car in the Porsche Sprint Challenge at the Shanghai Circuit and achieved excellent results.
The No. 69 Audi R8 LMS GT4 EVO will be driven by Air Tong, who is the team manager and has rich racing experience. As the first race after the team was established, this race will strive to achieve better results on the field and show the speed of Incipient Racing on the field.
At the same time, the two Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo II cars of the Incipient Racing team will actively participate in other important domestic events. Here, the Incipient Racing team sincerely invites all ambitious people with racing dreams to join and embark on a passionate racing journey together. Everyone joins hands and competes together on the field, strives for excellent results, and creates glorious moments for the team and individuals.
Incipient Racing is taking firm steps towards the unknown but hopeful journey of the track. I believe that with the unremitting efforts of all members and the support from all walks of life, the team will not only achieve good results in the SRO GT Cup and other domestic competitions, but will also gradually grow into a shining star in the field of racing. In the future, we expect Incipient Racing to continue to break through itself, spread advanced racing concepts and outstanding competitive strength further, attract more people to join this exciting sport, and jointly promote the vigorous development of racing culture, leaving a deep and dazzling mark on the global racing stage.
