History
In 2008, Richert won the Volkswagen Jetta TDI Cup media contest with almost double the amount of exposure as any other driver in the series. This earned him the chance to race at the famous Hockenheimring in the VW Polo Cup event at the DTM season finale. He competed in VW TDI Cup in 2008[1] and 2009,[2] finishing 25th and 18th in points, respectively. Richert was away from professional racing in 2010, but in 2011 made four starts in the Italian Formula Renault Championship for Team Torino Motorsport[3] with a best finish of 10th at Misano World Circuit.[4] He also tested a Formula 3 car for Team Ghizani in 2011.[5]
