Racing Team Schroten, active in both the Formula Challenge and the World Sport Series, has announced some changes in their driver line-ups.
The team is successful in the FC championship once again, being 6th in the FC constructor?s championship. In the World Sport Series however, the team is 'only' positioned 16th in the standings, despite Wopke showing promising pace in the Porsche. However in both series, changes in the line-up are made to become even more competitive.

In the Formula Challenge, Geoffrey Fournier will replace Tommi Ojala, who will move up to the Supercup with SrS-racing.

Roy: "While it saddens us that we won't have Tommi in the team, we also feel very happy for him to move up to the Supercup. It is great to see him move to a place where he seems to have a better fit. We are very happy to announce that Geoffrey will join us. He has shown some great talent in the Open Series, and even in the Formula Challenge at Istanbul, and we are sure that he will be able to grow with the help of the team."

Geoffrey will make his debut for the team this week around the challenging streets of Monaco.

In the World Sport Series, Marcos Riffel has replaced Menno Klont in the second Porsche to drive alongside Wopke for the remainder of the season.

Roy: "We are glad to have Marcos in the team. He is a very dedicated sim-racer, and already showed his pace in the last two rounds. In Monaco, there was a lot of bad luck, but the pace was set and it looks very promising for the remaining rounds. Menno has done a great job, and it was a lot of fun to have him in the team. It saddens us, but we both decided that this was an opportunity we could not miss. I'm glad that we have found another seat for Menno, so that we can still battle together on the track."
