We’re only 1 round into the 10 round Championship and already we’ve seen our first shake-up of team driver lineups with Evolution Racing Team this week announcing the recruitment of former Pursuit Sim Racing Driver Sebastian Flock.
Sebastian has been a hot property coming into the series with high anticipation surrounding the results that he is capable of producing as an up-and-coming driver. That said, his performance at Sebring would have been considered lackluster only managing a lowly P35 in qualifying and a P31 in the race.
Clearly the potential is there and ERT believe that with the change in team they can use their depth of experience to guide Seb’s performances forward and have him contending for positions well inside the top 20 going forward. The team stated “With Round 2 at Winton now just a week away, he has already been seen testing and has shown that he will be working his way up through the field.”
Many would consider the departure from PSR a surprise as that is also a team deep with talent. We’re looking forward to keeping a close eye on his performances going forward from here to see what his results look like under the new team environment.
The move is the first of what we anticipate to be a hectic year of driver signings and movements surrounding the highly anticipated Enduro Cup that will be happening later in the year. With drivers not eligible to race together it creates a truly interesting puzzle for teams to solve when it comes to filling Co-Driver seats.
