Stanley Yangs first Vantage GT4 Evo drive in the SRO GT Cup Series


This weekend saw just the second round of the new for 2025 SRO GT Cup Series run around the improvised street circuit layout of Pingtan Ruyi Lake International City Circuit along the Chinese coastal mainland.

Featuring amongst this twenty-one GT4 car entry list was a rebranded and revamped driver entry (supported again by the Level Motorsport team) to that that took part at the season opener way back in mid-March at the Shanghai F1 Grand Prix event with a more widely known Aston Martin Racing driver behind the wheel of the #87 car.


This time, it was Stanley Yang’s turn to take control of the AMR Vantage GT4 Evo for the first time for this weekend’s two thirty-minute solo driver races where the Taiwanese driver qualified the car seventh overall ahead of both races.

Competing at probably not the best circuit to learn both a new car and new series, a Safety Car interrupted the flow of the opening race as Yang was pushing hard to reclaim time lost in the opening laps of race one to eventually finish P9 overall at the end.


Race two on Sunday saw the #87 car experience some degree of technical issue that saw Yang struggle to slow for one corner and for him to make for the pit lane as a result and although he did rejoin the race towards the end, he was obviously a long way back in the finishing order.

Next time out for the series will be in Beijing in mid-October before finishing at the Greater Bay Area GT4 event from Macau in mid-November.
