Azcona and Haglöf finish in WTCR with Cupra
The PWR Racing team warned: she will combine experience and youth on the starting grid of the World Touring Car Cup (WTCR) in 2019. Indeed, Mikel Azcona, 22 years old, and Daniel Haglöf, 40 years old, will ride aboard the Cupra TCRs of the Scandinavian team.

The first named is none other than the 2018 TCR Europe champion, already with a Cupra. The Spaniard notably beat Jean-Karl Vernay, which continues its journey with Team WRT and Audi. “Mikel is no longer a promising driver, warns Jaime Puig, boss of Cupra Racing. His performances in TCR Europe last year are proof of his abilities and his personality. »
His teammate Daniel Haglöf will not be underestimated either. The Swede, owner of the PWR Racing team, fought for the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship (STCC) title against Johan Kristoffersson until the last round in 2018.
The 2019 WTCR season is scheduled to kick off in Marrakech (Morocco) from April 5-7.
