TCR INTERNATIONAL - Zhejiang, CHINA: Challenging a new circuit!
The penultimate round of the TCR International Series championship took place in China this weekend at the brand new Zhejiang Circuit in Shaoxing Province; a giant infrastructure in a hillside forest.
Aurelien Panis at the wheel of the Honda #28 made up some positions to take P9 in race 1, but could not finish race 2 following a sudden lack of engine power while he was fighting for seventh position. He was classified P13.
In the meantime, we’ll go to Cinquantenaire in Brussels on Sunday October 15 for the www.starsrallyetelevie.be to support a benefit for the FNRS, which is fighting the battle against cancer and Leukemia. Thierry Boutsen, godfather of this edition, will participate in the rally at the wheel of the new Honda NSX.
