News & Announcements August 7

On June 22nd, at the Nürburgring 24 Hours, the 🇨🇳 all-Chinese team completed the race with a total of 111 laps! They finished third in the AT3 class, taking the podium on their debut race! A new breakthrough for Chinese racing at the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

The Nürburgring Nordschleife, often called the "Green Hell," is considered the world's most demanding endurance test due to its complex curves, high altitude differences, and unpredictable weather.

This year's Nürburgring 24 Hours also saw the debut of a Chinese team. Three Chinese drivers, Yan Chuang, Zhang Zhiqiang, and Wang Risheng, will compete in the Lynk & Co 03 TCR.

It's called the "all-Chinese" team because of the 🇨🇳Chinese drivers. --- Yan Chuang, Zhang Zhiqiang, Wang Risheng, 🇨🇳 Chinese team --- Jiekai Racing, 🇨🇳 Chinese racing car --- Lynk & Co 03 TCR, 🇨🇳 Chinese wheels --- ARTKA, 🇨🇳 Chinese tires --- Sailun, 🇨🇳 Chinese brakes --- Shengdi. This also marks the debut and testing of Made in China racing products at the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

The Nürburgring 24 Hours is no ordinary speed contest. It's a test of both the driver's mental fortitude and the car's mechanical abilities. Historically, the completion rate has consistently been below 75%.

This year, the completion rate is around 60%, demonstrating the difficulty of completing the race.

Thankfully, they had been well prepared during the pre-test.

Thanks to the dedicated efforts of the technicians,

they were able to return to the track with only the final 7 minutes remaining and successfully crossed the finish line!

The complex and challenging track

is also a very demanding test for the wheels.
