Lynk & Co has made a name for itself in the racing world since 2019, when the brand began sponsoring Cyan Racing and entered the WTCR World Touring Car Cup. As the first Chinese brand to compete in an FIA championship, the team has won five world championships thus far, including three overall team championships and two driver championships.
