Motorsport is on hold

Drexler-Automotive Formula Cup

The Corona/Covid 19 pandemic has been crippling motor sport for a good month now. If you like, you could observe an emergency stop worldwide. Not only the federations, series organizers and promoters, as well as teams, pilots and sponsors agree that the health of the people is now the highest priority. The challenges are also unique for the Drexler Formula Cup. So far there have been no cancellations in the calendar. The season opener in mid-May at the Red Bull Ring (15.-17.05.) depends on the approval of the authorities in Austria. As was heard, after Easter the situation will be reassessed in order to decide which major events will take place at the Red Bull Ring. "The situation is not easy for us, especially after the cancellations of many motorsport events in the last four weeks. We are in contact with both the FIA Zone Championship and the TopJET F2000 Italian Formula Trophy by phone every week in order to monitor developments and react as quickly as possible", says coordinator Franz Wöss.

The main sponsor Drexler Automotive is standing by the series in not so easy times and has once again underlined its support. "The Drexler Formula Cup is particularly close to our hearts as main sponsor, especially because of the talents and organizers behind it. It is a "family" racing series, where the passion for motorsport and being on the same level with each other are in focus. Nevertheless, the professionalism and preparation for high motorsport goals is not neglected, because the races are held on the best international race tracks. Of course, the Drexler Formula Cup, like all other racing series, stands on somewhat uncertain and shaky legs concerning the dates. But we are confident that the Drexler Formula Cup can be continued as usual at a later date and wish all starters, as well as the organizers under the direction of Franz Wöss all the best for the coming season, especially health", say Herbert and Tamara Drexler. The motorsport is now unintentionally in a crisis. Some things will change, but new starting points and aspects for further development are also required.
