Agudelo crowned 'What'Cha Got' champion

TORONTO (Dec. 15, 2016) — New England Revolution soccer player Juan Agudelo was crowned the winner recently of Contintental Tire the Americas L.L.C.'s "What'Cha Got" competition.

In its third season, "What 'Cha Got" featured 14 Major League Soccer (MLS) players who tested their agility, speed and quick thinking on a closed-circuit autocross course behind the wheel of a 2016 Audi R8.

The competition included seven participants from the MLS's Eastern and Western Conferences who competed for the chance to win a year-long lease of a 2017 Audi R8 fitted in Continental's , the ContiSportContactTM 5P ultra-high performance tire.

The segments aired on FOX and FOX Sports 1 as part of the "Sunday Soccer" lineup.

In the end, Mr. Agudelo squared off against the LA Galaxy's AJ DeLaGarza for the title, beating him by 0.03 second for the title.

"I watched all the YouTube videos and I really wanted to give it a go," Mr. Agudelo said. "I like racing, and I actually have a simulator with a steering wheel in my living room that I play video games with. I thought maybe this video game simulator may actually help me win a car and save money, and it worked out."

Mr. Agudelo, who received the keys to his new car during halftime of the Dec. 10 MLS Cup match, wanted the car to be a part of his upcoming wedding day.

"Having the Audi R8 there when my entire family is there for the week, and then to get married, and then hopefully fitting my fiancé's dress in the passenger seat to drive away, would be pretty special," Mr. Agudelo said.
