Hankook FFF Racing Team is glad to announce its drivers’ line-up for 2021 NLS series. The team, a former 2019 GT World Challenge and Endurance Champion in both Drivers and Teams standings, will field a full Lamborghini Factory Drivers poker for its 2021 campaign with its new brand Hankook Tire livery.

At the wheel of the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO Hankook FFF Racing Team will be the Italian poker with Andrea Caldarelli, Marco Mapelli, Giacomo Altoè and Mirko Bortolotti. Those four drivers are multiple champions in the GT3 series, with well-established experience with both the car and Nordschleife track, which will host all of the 2021 NLS, iconic 24-hour marathon on the 25.37-kilometre combination of the Nordschleife and the Grand Prix Circuit, which is regarded as one of the most demanding endurance races for man and machine, and is also one of the biggest motorsport events in the world.

A very special feature is also the livery. As an important technical partner, the car will be Hankook branded with its colours and design, combined with the traditional and glamorous black notes which are part of the car’s livery since the team was founded in 2014. The unique partnership combines the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO strengths, the professionalism of FFF Racing Team, and the quality and performance of  Hankook’s Ventus Race tyre.
 

Fu Songyang, Team Owner Hankook FFF Racing Team
“I’m really happy to announce our driver line-up for the 2021 Nürburgring racing program. Together with Hankook, I’m sure we can aim to an incredible season, pairing two great entities of motorsport. The ADAC TOTAL 24h-Rennen will be a new challenge for us, but we are ready for the challenge with our Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO and a quartet of top drivers. All of them raced already with us, so I’m glad to welcome back Mirko, who raced for us in Macao, Giacomo, who made half of 2019 season with FFF in the Silver Cup, and for sure our champions Andrea and Marco. I’m impressed too by the aesthetics of this car, which perfectly represents our brand identity”.

Manfred Sandbichler, Hankook Motorsport Director Europe
“This high-class quartet of drivers gives the Hankook FFF Racing Team a very good chance of winning the 49^th staging of the ADAC TOTAL 24h Race. Each of the four Italian works drivers is a class apart in GT racing and can already point to many successes at the wheel of the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO. The races leading up to the 24-hour classic in the Eifel must be used to fine-tune the cooperation between all involved. The excellent partnership between Hankook and the FFF Racing Team is clear to see in the car’s new livery, which combines the colours and graphic design elements of both Hankook and Lamborghini”.
