Cyan Racing presents its drivers for the 2021 season

We've been waiting for it for a few weeks, it's done. Cyan Racing, the reigning WTCR world champion team, has just presented its squad for the season which will begin next June on the legendary northern loop of the Nürburgring. These are the same drivers, as those of the 2020 season, who will be lined up in 2021.

Outgoing champion Yann Ehrlacher will always be associated with his uncle, four-time WTCC champion Yvan Muller. The other two Lynk & Co TCR 03s will be entrusted to Thed Bjork, the 2017 WTCC champion, and the young Uruguayan hopeful Santiago Urrutia (find his portrait in our next issue). 

Everyone's ambitions are all legitimately focused on the constructor's title for the Chinese brand after the two titles gleaned in 2019 and 2020. Ehrlacher will be keen to retain his crown, but he will have to be wary of his teammates who will try everything they can. can add an additional line to their list of achievements.

We will have to keep a close eye on Urrutia who, after a year of learning, intends to try his luck to win the World Cup in his third year in a touring car. 

Currently testing at Motorland Aragón, the Chinese-Swedish team is actively preparing for the start of the season. We will provide you with a review of these tests soon.
