Lexus Goes Racing.....Despite the Volcano


As a final test leading up to the Nürburgring 24h race, Lexus participated in this weekend’s Nürburgring 52. ADAC ACAS H&R-Cup race.

Only one LFA participated in the race, as Iceland’s volcanic ash prevented support personnel from getting to the track in time to run the second LFA—the IS F team also participated.

In a tragic turn, the race was ended immediately following a fatal accident involving Aston Martin driver Leo Löwenstein. Our condolences to Löwenstein’s family and the entire Aston Martin team.
