In the final Lamborghini Super Trofeo Asia round of the season, VSR’s PRO-AM stars Todd Kingsford and Kiwi driver Chris van der Drift wrapped up the class title with three races in hand. Extending their unbroken, season-long run of PRO-AM victories, a class win in race one was enough to secure them an unassailable points lead.

Lamborghini Racegraph by Bundang’s Peter Li Zhicong and Lamborghini Super Trofeo Junior team-mate Titus Sherlock (Race 1 victory), along with fellow Junior drivers Liam Sceats (NZ) and Gustaw Wisniewski at Vincenzo Sospiri Racing (VSR) (Race 2 victory), shared the spoils in Lamborghini Super Trofeo Asia round five at the 5.451 km Shanghai International Circuit.

A VSR one-two overall finish in race two saw Sceats and Gustaw Wisniewski take victory ahead of stablemates Kingsford and van der Drift

Sherlock and Li Zhicong took their first victory together with a triumphant pole-to-flag win in race one. Second over the line were Kingsford and van der Drift, their perfect score of eight out of eight PRO-AM wins securing the 2026 title. Third were PRO points leaders William Tregurtha and Jonathan Cecotto for Batmobile Racing.

Having already wrapped up the 2026 PRO-AM title in race one, Kingsford allowed the faster-paced Sceats to storm past and into the overall lead in Race 2. That allowed Kingsford to protect Sceats’ victory by keeping Sherlock at bay. And defend he did. Try as he might, an increasingly-frustrated Sherlock could not find a way past a resolute Kingsford, and the pair duelling all the way to the line.

Sceats crossed the line victorious, he and team mate Wisniewski taking the PRO win, followed by van der Drift and Kingsford making it a one-two VSR overall finish. Sherlock and Li took second in PRO ahead of Wolfe. The PRO battle will go down to the wire in the final round at the World Finals round in Italy (24-25 October 2026).

Lamborghini Super Trofeo Asia now bids farewell to the region for 2026, and heads to the brand’s home territory for round six at Italy’s celebrated Monza Circuit. The season final double-header will be held from 22-23 October, immediately followed by the World Finals.
