BTCC: First test of 2015 for Rob Austin Racing at Brands Hatch

By Johan Laubscher

Rob Austin Racing was out testing at Brands Hatch this week. Both of the team’s Audi A4 cars joined a number of other British Touring Car Championship teams at the circuit on Tuesday and Wednesday.

This was the first test session for Rob Austin Racing this year. Rob Austin and Hunter Abbott piloted the two all-black Audi A4 NGTC specification touring cars, affectionately nicknamed Sherman and Panzer.

It was a productive test for the Rob Austin Racing squad and they will now continue with their preparations for the 2015 season.

The BTCC media day will be taking place at Donington Park on 24 March, followed by Brands Hatch hosting the season opening round from 4-5 April.
