The local importer of Ferrari, Forza Motors Korea, sponsored Ryu’s entry into the race and signed him on as its corporate pitchman.
Ryu took the pole position and then finished second in the first race and first in the second leg to grab the title.
Ryu, the manager of EXR Team 106, has been dabbling in auto racing for 14 years and founded his own team in 2009.
“This was a good experience, and I am pleased to win it as a representative for my country,” Ryu said. “I’d like to thank my Chinese fans for coming out to the airport and to the tracks to support me.”
