香港車隊一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport 今日在馬來西亞雪邦國際賽車場上取得第一個盃賽總冠軍，由車隊創辦人兼主車手陸漢洋以精湛技術獨力完成最後一場的兩節賽事，為車隊奠定「亞洲勒芒衝刺盃」總冠軍殊榮。

星期六即最終回的首場賽事，一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport 主車手陸漢洋和安德魯斯（Scott Andrews）在長達5.543公里的一級方程式賽道上表現出色，從第一桿位起步一直領先至終點，成功奪冠。而成立車隊僅四個月的陸漢洋亦榮登車手積分榜榜首，成為第一位贏得洲際LMP衝刺盃冠軍的華人車手。

已將賽事兩項殊榮納入囊中的一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport，本對最後一場比賽充滿信心，卻因安德魯斯生病而出現變數。安德魯斯懷疑染上登革熱發高燒，陸漢洋獨自肩負起奪冠的重任，在酷熱而潮濕的馬來西亞展開長達一小時的耐力賽，而一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport 亦因更換車手而被罰在最後起步。比賽一開始，陸漢洋憑藉驚人的爆發力，不斷超越前車，比賽僅進行了10分鐘已奪得領先位置。最後以1分多鐘的優勢衝過終點，向所有人證明一颷賽車 WINMotorsport 經已是亞洲車壇不可忽視的新勢力。

一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport 自四月成立以來便在亞洲和海外打好基礎，五月時先於馬來西亞贏得亞洲勒芒衝刺盃的揭幕戰雙冠軍，亦在勒芒24小時耐力賽前哨戰—Road to Le Mans(短途國際盃)賽事中與國際強敵對戰，以前十名完成賽事。

一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport語錄：
陸漢洋：「贏得亞洲勒芒衝刺盃對一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport而言是一件非常激動的事，而我則對能夠獨力完成兩節賽事，並成功從隊尾追趕至衝線的過程感到好感恩。我很自豪能夠成為第一位贏得洲際衝刺盃賽事的LMP華人車手。在沒有賽車場的香港成立新車隊，在如此短促的時間內集合國際級團隊，五月才開始參加比賽，到現在贏得頂級亞洲賽事總冠軍，意義非凡。我非常感謝一颷賽車 WIN Motorsport，團隊經理Steward Wild，工程師Reece Byrne，首席機械師Sjoerd Wolters以及每位辛苦付出的成員。」

安德魯斯：「我非常感激陸漢洋給我這個機會，他的表現非常出色，成功奪得賽事總冠軍，而整年的成績均非常優秀和穩定。我很享受與這般頂級的團隊合作，感謝車隊的每位成員助我贏得職業生涯的首場LMP賽事冠軍。」

William Lok and Scott Andrews make their mark as team prove they are a formidable new force just four months after formation

Hong Kong’s WIN Motorsport took its third Asian Le Mans Sprint Cup overall victory at the Sepang International Circuit after a wheel-perfect Race 2 saw team principal and driver William Lok cross the line with a massive advantage of more than a lap.

Lok made it win number three for the team he formed just six months ago, strengthening their grasp on their Asian Le Mans Sprint Cup title bid and showing once again the new LMP3 outfit is a true force to be reckoned with. WIN Motorsport now has a strong advantage at the top of the championship leaderboard with just two races to go of the 2017 Sprint Cup season.

While Lok, Rizzo and the entire WIN Motorsport squad put in faultless performances in Race 2 to claim the win, it was an eventful weekend which required maximum attack.

Speaking about the win, William lok: “With three Asian Le Mans Series wins and a podium in four races, WIN Motorsport is right on track in our debut season. We’re learning fast and have already proved we are strong championship contenders. When faced with setbacks, we react with more pace, tighter cohesion, greater commitment. Adversity just makes us stronger as we’ve demonstrated this weekend. My thanks to the whole WIN Motorsport team.”

Saturday’s Race 1 brought a number of challenges which the team pulled together to overcome, returning for Race 2 with a vengeance that resulted in a dominant win.

Race 1 saw WIN Motorsport claim second place after an outstanding fightback. The team was leading the race overall until the closing minutes when a late-race drive through penalty dealt a cruel blow. However, such was the margin of their advantage that even a trip to pit lane only saw them drop one place.

“I’m very happy with the weekend. We were by far the quickest car on track,” said Davide Rizzo. We had the consistently good pace needed for endurance racing. The car was great, and the WIN Motorsport team did a fantastic job.”

After a strong qualifying session, Lok took the first stint in the #1 Ligier JS P3 LMP3 from the front row of the grid. However, the chaotic start saw him pushed down the order and then frustrated by his two slower rivals in front.  Determined to find a way past, on Lap 5 Lok made a dive on the inside to pass the pair and claim the lead, but he was clipped into a spin.

Lok managed to get the car going again and into the pits. After a rapid damage assessment by the team, the WIN Motorsport LMP3 was back out on track, albeit at the back of the pack and a lap down. As Lok began the fightback, the Safety Car was called out after another car hit the barriers. That closed up the field but, more importantly, allowed Lok to pit and hand the car to Rizzo, who rejoined the field at the back but – crucially – now on the same lap.

As the Safety Car pulled off, Rizzo was flying at the restart. In a charge that was nothing short of heroic, the masterful Italian rocketed into the race lead, building up an impressive advantage.

However, WIN Motorsport’s aspirations for a third consecutive win were dealt another blow when, with just minutes remaining on the clock, the team was handed a drive through penalty for the earlier incident involving Lok. Rizzo continued to push to the max though, and held on to second and a healthy championship points haul for the team.

With their determination undiminished despite the frustrations of Race 1, WIN Motorsport returned to the Malaysian F1 track the next day on fighting form. This time it was Rizzo who took the first stint, blasting away from the rolling start to pull out a healthy lead and handing the car to Lok mid-way with an impressive margin. Lok once again put in a masterful performance to bring the car home and claim the team’s third win in four races.

The six-race, three-round Asia Le Mans Sprint Cup resumes next month for the season finale from August 18-20, once again at the Sepang International Circuit.  As championship leaders going in to the final double-header, WIN Motorsport will be determined to secure the Sprint title in preparation for its entry in the 2017-2018 Asian Le Man Series, set to begin in October.
