The 32 year old is a well-known single seater driver and former test and reserve driver for three Formula 1 teams, including Lotus Renault GP in 2011. The Malaysian’s participation with OD Racing will mark his first full season in a closed cockpit series, having had stints in the Super GT events in Japan and Malaysia, as well as his most recent participation in the World Final of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo at Sepang International Circuit last year.

“I am happy for the opportunity that Zen has given me. We were actually in talks for me to drive for the team in the Asian Le Mans Series when this opportunity opened up and Zen offered me the drive, just last week. I am certainly looking forward to racing in the GT Asia Series for the first time” said Fauzy.
