Wauters Automotive is proud to announce the signing of both Jarl Teien and Petar Brljak for their 2018 Superleague Campaign.

They will be joined by Test driver Niels Brugman for the technical development of the car, and Technical Director Daniel Cziranku who will be making all the right decisions in terms of development path and long term strategy for both the Wauters Automotive machinery and the Quasar QRS-01 powertrain that propels it.

Jarl Teien will return to the team and is looking forward to challenge for the championship this time around after a successful second half of 2017:
"2018 will be a different challenge than last year, last year I was only supposed to step in a few races but ended up doing pretty much rest of the season. After hints of success I see 2018 being quite successful with a different mod and prize money for the first time to boost the morale."

Petar Brljak is looking forward to lining up alongside the Norwegian and is equally eager to battle for that one top spot:
"It's exciting to re-enter league competition with a new team after a season's break. The goal for everyone is running consistently at the front and even though it's very early days, try to challenge for the championship. For me, it also gives me a chance to challenge myself and sharpen my skills for what might come in the growing world of eSports racing."

For Technical Director Daniel Cziranku and Team Manager Andreas Wauters, the signing of such a competitive line-up comes as a relief and a sign to push the competitiveness of the Belgian outfit even further:
"When Gergo told us he wanted to focus on tintops in 2018, we of course had to respect and support that decision with full intent, but we had a big job to do to find someone that could fit his shoes in Superleague. We think that with the re-signing of Jarl and the addition of Petar to our squad, we think we've done just that, and even more. We will be fully focussed to give these amazing drivers the best car possible during the entire season. 2018 will surely keep us on the edge of our seat!"

In addition to the reveal of their 2018 line-up, the team announced that the sale of their new Quasar QSR-01 engine would start tomorrow.
