Debut podium success for the Janik Motorsport AMR team in the GT Cup Series this weekend

Sunday, May 18, 2025

It was a rather successful start to this Aston Martin Racing powered campaign this season for the Czech based Janik Motorsport team as they competed at their first round of the GT Cup Series (ESET Cup Series) from the Red Bull Ring with their Vantage GT4 Evo.

Another series that permits multiple class of GT cars as well as single seaters within other races, the GT Cup Series started in Austria with a pair of twenty-five-minute sprint races followed by an hour-long endurance race for their twenty-six-car entry.

Czech drivers Petr Koukola and Vaclav Yanik got their AMR racing account off to a flying start within Saturday’s opening endurance round within they finished P18 overall and P2 in class.

That success was then continued into Sunday where Koukola ran solo within the two sprint races to finish P4 in class after the first and with another visit to the podium of his own with a P18 overall/P3 in class finish after race 2.
