Didn’t know Scirocco R-Cup is actually so popular! They’ve just launched a live-streaming iPhone app that lets you watch the races, live, wherever you are. Even F1 doesn’t have that!

The app, available for iPod Touch as well, also includes news about the series, tracks and drivers as well as photos, videos, results and the latest points standings. This is a very good application for the fans of this racing series, and should catch on with other series as well. Seeing as most, well all, races are held on Sundays, and chances are you are out having fun with friends and family that day, unless you are a nerd and stayed at home to watch a car race, apps like this are brilliant.

As a DTM partner series, the Scirocco R-Cup continues at the Nürburgring ahead of the UK round at Brands Hatch next month.  Joining the line-up of regular ‘Junior’ and ‘Pro’ racers on the grid will be German rally racers Uwe Nittel and Niki Schelle as well as two junior rally stars, Christian Riedemann and Hans Weijs Jnr who will contest the ADAC Rallye Deutschland later this month as Volkswagen Motorsport continue preparations ahead of the Polo R WRC making its debut in the World Rally Championship (WRC) in 2013
