Sutil faces trial for Shanghai fracas

FORMER Force India Formula One driver Adrian Sutil will stand trial this month on charges of causing bodily harm in relation to a nightclub fracas in China last April, a Munich court said yesterday in Germany.

The German, who has yet to find a race seat this year but has been linked to Williams, is charged with attacking and injuring Eric Lux, chief executive of the Renault F1 team in a Shanghai nightclub after the Chinese Grand Prix last year. The Renault team has since been renamed Lotus. Force India have already announced Germany's Nico Hulkenberg as Sutil's replacement. Sutil had at the time issued a statement of apology, without giving any details, for injuring Lux. Munich court spokeswoman Ingrid Kaps said two trial days had been set for January 30 and 31.
