Finn Zulauf and Josef Knopp to compete in the 2024 ADAC GT4 Germany with AVIA W&S Motorsport

AVIA W&S Motorsport will field two up-and-coming young talents, Finn Zulauf and Josef Knopp, in the 2024 ADAC GT4 Germany season. The 19-year-old Zulauf has been closely associated with the team of Patrick Wagner and Daniel Schellhaas since 2021 and will again be wearing the unmistakable AVIA colours of white and red this year. Knopp, who is the same age, will join the Ofterdingen-based outfit for the 2024 season and has previously competed in the fiercely contested German GT4 racing series.

The two youngsters will pilot the AVIA racing Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport with start number 31 and compete for both the overall and Junior classification. Zulauf has finished third in the Junior Championship in each of the past two years, claimed a pole position, an overall victory and several class victories in 2023 and became team champion with AVIA W&S Motorsport.

It will be the third season in the ADAC GT4 Germany for Knopp, who was born in Pilsen in the Czech Republic. In 2023, he secured several class podiums and finished fifth in the Junior classification. In preparation for the new season, Knopp competed with W&S Motorsport in the GT4 Winter Series in Jerez, where he got to know his new team and car. He showed incredible pace there and was one of the fastest drivers in the field. He brought the Ofterdingen-based racing team its first overall win of 2024 and two victories in the Pro-Am class.

The ADAC GT4 Germany season starts in Oschersleben from 26 to 28 April 2024.

Daniel Schellhaas, Team Principal AVIA W&S Motorsport: "It is great to have two young and ambitious drivers in the team in Finn and Josef. We have been working with Finn for a long time and the development he has made in recent years is enormous and impressive. I would like to give Josef a warm welcome! He has already competed with us in the GT4 Winter Series and has proven his ability and speed. I am looking forward to the new season with our experienced juniors and I am sure that they will be at the front and fighting for the championship."

Finn Zulauf, Driver AVIA W&S Motorsport: "I am very happy to be competing again with AVIA W&S Motorsport in the ADAC GT4 Germany and that I can continue to represent the colours of AVIA racing! After not winning the drivers' title last year due to unfortunate circumstances, the fight for the championship is clearly the goal this year. I am also very much looking forward to sharing the cockpit of the AVIA racing Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport with Josef and I think we are a good driver combination and have a lot of potential."

Josef Knopp, Driver AVIA W&S Motorsport: "I am very happy that I will be competing with AVIA W&S Motorsport in the ADAC GT4 Germany this season. We have already worked together in the GT4 Winter Series, where I got to know the team and their professional approach. The squad has already achieved many successes in recent years and I want to play my part in ensuring that we have even more reason to celebrate together. Now we have to prepare for the season in the best possible way in order to finish at the top."
