Nico Hulkenberg will return to the track next month when he guest appears in a round of the ADAC GT Masters series at the Nürburgring driving a Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo.
The former Renault F1 driver will compete in the series' second round on August 15-16 with the mcchip-dkr outfit, co-driving with team owner Danny Kubasik.
"The ADAC GT Masters is an exciting series with cool cars," he the Hulk.
"And after a break of almost eight months, I'm really keen to get behind the wheel again and feel the adrenalin flow.
"With Formula 1 at last having got underway, my fingers are twitching.
"To all rumour merchants out there, I'd like to make it quite clear that this guest start is to be interpreted as no more than a minor venture into GT sport.
"I'm really looking forward to the challenge, but I also know that we'll have to stretch ourselves quite a bit to be competitive."
