Fach Auto Tech: Tomorrow is the day
SEASON START 2024 Fach Auto Tech has long enjoyed success in the Porsche one-make cups. Now the team from Sattel is taking on a new challenge. The racing team will compete in the ADAC GT Masters with the Porsche 911 GT3 R.
The time has finally come. From April 26 to 28, Fach Auto Tech celebrates its return to the ADAC GT Masters. The season opener of the popular GT3 championship will take place in the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben. The Fach Auto Tech team will be on the grid with the new Porsche 911 GT3 R. The #4 will be driven by Alexander Schwarzer and Alexander Fach. Qualifying and a race are scheduled for both Saturday and Sunday.
Strong team
"This will be an incredibly exciting year for us," says Team Principal Alex Fach. "We have a lot of experience to gain in the new season - from the race car and a new racing format to the highly competitive field with a wide variety of brands. But we are really looking forward to these challenges."
Alexander Fach and Alexander Schwarzer, two true Porsche experts, will drive the car with the starting number 4, which has also been given the distinctive red and white Fach Auto-Tech design in the ADAC GT Masters. Schwarzer has already competed for the Schwyz-based team in the Porsche Sports Cup Suisse and the Dubai 24 Hours. They also made a guest start together in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup in 2023.
New car
Team colleague Alexander Fach also knows the team very well. The 21-year-old competed for the Fach team in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup and Porsche Carrera Cup Germany in 2022 and 2023. He collected a large number of podium finishes and claimed the first victory by a Swiss driver in the prestigious Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup at Silverstone. He is looking forward to the switch to a Porsche 911 GT3 R: "Of course, the Porsche 911 GT3 R is a different car to the Cup Porsche - among other things, we now have many more setting options and more downforce, and it is also equipped with ABS and traction control."
The duo can expect even more innovations compared to the one-make cups. The ADAC GT Masters offers unparalleled diversity - in addition to Porsche, the field includes Audi, Mercedes, Aston Martin, Lamborghini and BMW.
