Czech outfit Fullinrace Academy is set to make a remarkable debut in the season finale of the ADAC GT Masters championship at the legendary Hockenheimring circuit. For their maiden appearance in this highly competitive European GT racing series, the team will field an Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II, driven by seasoned Austrian racer Gerhard Tweraser alongside Czech driver Petr Fulin in the fiercely contested Pro-Am class.
For Gerhard Tweraser, this season-ending weekend marks his second ADAC GT Masters appearance of the year, following a previous outing at the Nurburgring with Grasser Racing Team aboard a Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2. Boasting a solid background of 38 starts in the ADAC GT Masters alongside extensive experience in the GT World Challenge Europe and International GT Open, his arrival provides Fullinrace Academy with invaluable technical insight as they transition from national Czech series to continental competition.
Meanwhile, Petr Fulin brings a wealth of touring car expertise to the table, having previously made waves in the ADAC TCR Germany platform with a dominant double victory at Most in 2018. The partnership between Petr Fulin and Gerhard Tweraser is expected to maximize the potential of the Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II around the technical Hockenheimring layout, particularly by capitalizing on the shorter mandatory pit stop times allocated to Pro-Am entries.

Team manager Tadeas Martinek emphasized that entering the Mannheim-area circuit represents a golden opportunity to measure their capabilities against elite continental opposition. «ADAC GT Masters zahlt zu den renommiertesten GT-Rennserien Europas. Fur uns ist es eine großartige Gelegenheit, uns auf diesem hohen Wettbewerbsniveau zu beweisen. Wenn alles gut lauft, wurden wir uns naturlich sehr freuen, auch in Zukunft weitere Einsatze in Betracht zu ziehen,» stated Tadeas Martinek ahead of the race weekend.
Echoing the team's ambitions, Gerhard Tweraser expressed his delight at securing the late-season drive alongside Petr Fulin. «Der Start in Hockenheim hat sich sehr kurzfristig ergeben und ich freue mich sehr, dass mich Petr als Teamkollege ausgewahlt hat. Ich denke, dass wir relativ gute Chancen haben vorne mitzufahren, gerade mit der kurzeren Boxenstoppstandzeit der Pro-Am-Autos,» the Austrian driver noted. The two one-hour ADAC GT Masters races at the Hockenheimring are scheduled to get underway on October 10 at 15:05 and October 11 at 14:30 local time.
