Seat driver (Leon TDi prepared by Oreca) in the WTCC, Tiago Monteiro is competing in the fifth round of the world championship this weekend, in Brno. But the news of the Portuguese is also in Endurance. After his participation in 24 Hours of Le Mans, Monteiro was summoned by Oreca for the third round of the Le Mans Series, in Portimao, for the 1000 km of Algarve. The Porto native confirmed his great satisfaction at running in front of his audience:

« Hugues (de Chaunac, boss of Oreca, editor's note) had started talking to me about it before the race, he confirmed it to me afterwards and we made it official on Wednesday. I'm not yet part of the LMS championship but these freelances are very interesting for me. In Portimao, there will be fewer ??diesels?? so it will be interesting to compete in this race, to fight at the front. » As for Le Mans, the idea of ​​a return to the wheel of a ??proto?? is obvious: Without a doubt, I want to come back ».
