“Last year we proved that me, Norbert and the team work very well together by winning both WTCR titles (Drivers and Teams) and I think we are even stronger at the start of this season with the Hyundai Elantra N TCR, believes Mikel Azcona.

I think we are even stronger at the start of this season with the Hyundai Elantra N TCR. With the preparation done, I think we have a great chance to be in the running for titles again and continue the success we had last year. »

2019 WTCR champion Norbert Michelisz has predicted an interesting season as the TCR enters a new era.

“A lot of things are changing, and in a good way. We know that Mikel and I are very strong and that the Hyundai Elantra N TCR is a great car. However, there are many questions that we will only find the answer to when we start racing in Portugal (Portimao, first meeting from April 28 to 30. Editor’s note).

All these unknowns – the new circuits, the new tires (Kumho replaces Goodyear. Ed.), races with regional TCR series teams – mean that the driver who wins the title will be the one who adapts to these elements most quickly. I am impatient ! »
