From a German-speaking Swiss perspective, the debut of the talented Fabio Scherer is eagerly awaited. The 16-year-old from Lucerne won the ASS Young Driver Award 2015 and is bringing the sponsorship money from Auto Sport Switzerland to Jenzer as part of his sponsorship. The two-time karting champion forms the driver quartet in the ADAC Formula 4 with Job Van Uitert (NL), Estonian Jan-Erik Meikup and German Kevin Kratz.
